Hi Reinhard,
Thank you for the references.
The push back is regarding hardware specific modification of qcserial
to meet device requirement.
To make it harder, Sierra patches upstream modules and provides as-is
without the ability of side-by-side installation.
I compared the changes of qmi_wwan, usb_wwan most are trivial and
hopefully reach upstream.
I hope they workout and add the options support so this can be
upstreamed eventually.
In order to load firmware it should have been sufficient to have QDL
setup + somehow setup the tty for the AT channel.

/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/qcserial/new_id
Would have done the trick to be able to use this at least manually
without forcing the device specific nor options at this point, not
sure how simple it is to support this notation.
For now I will keep using the patched version of qcserial as it
actually works :)
Thank you again,
Alon
