Hello, This is the second attempt at adding the MHI (Modem Host Interface) bus interface to Linux kernel. MHI is a communication protocol used by the host processors to control and communicate with modems over a high speed peripheral bus or shared memory. The MHI protocol has been designed and developed by Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc., for use in their modems. The first submission was made by Sujeev Dias of Qualcomm: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/26/1159 https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/9/987 This series addresses most of the review comments by Greg and Arnd for the initial patchset. Furthermore, in order to ease the review process I've splitted the patches logically and dropped few of them which were not required for this initial submission. Below is the high level changelog: 1. Removed all DT related code 2. Got rid of pci specific struct members from top level mhi structs 3. Moved device specific callbacks like ul_xfer() to driver struct. It doesn’t make sense to have callbacks in device struct as suggested by Greg 4. Used priv data of `struct device` instead of own priv data in `mhi_device` as suggested by Greg. This will allow us to use dev_set{get}_drvdata() APIs in client drivers 5. Removed all debugfs related code 6. Changes to the APIs to look uniform 7. Converted the documentation to .rst and placed in its own subdirectory 8. Changes to the MHI device naming 9. Converted all uppercase variable names to appropriate lowercase ones 10. Removed custom debug code and used the dev_* ones where applicable 11. Dropped timesync, DTR, UCI, and Qcom controller related codes 12. Added QRTR client driver patch 13. Added modalias support for the MHI stack as well as client driver for autoloading of modules (client drivers) by udev once the MHI devices are created This series includes the MHI stack as well as the QRTR client driver which falls under the networking subsystem.
