Might be. Sorry, this is outside of my area of interest, because LTE
would not be on usable frequencies, anyway.

I guess splitting on \n makes sense, yes. 

Ofono normally uses just \r. Translating it to \r\n in kernel (ttys
already do that) would be super nice, but I think this is easy enough
to handle in ofono.
