The driver does not aim to be THE wwan implementation, given the heterogeneity of WWAN interfaces, so 'wwan' is probably too generic for this bus/vendor specific driver. But since we create a new wwan subdir, maybe we should create a minimal wwan_sysfs.c, that would initially just offer a common class for all WWAN devices (wwan or wwan-ports), as a first step to if not standardize, at least group such devices under the same hat. Otherwise, we can just use the misc class... Any thoughts? > > > +#define MHI_WWAN_CTRL_MAX_MINORS 128 > > Why so many? Right, it's not valid anymore, I'm going to change that. Thanks, Loic
