Always bind to control interface regardless of whether it is a shared interface or not. A QMI/wwan function is required to provide both a control interface (QMI) and a data interface (wwan). All devices supported by this driver do so. But the vendors may choose to use different USB descriptor layouts, and some vendors even allow the same device to present different layouts. Most of these devices use a USB descriptor layout with a single USB interface for both control and data. But some split control and data into two interfaces, bound together by a CDC Union descriptor on the control interface. Before the cdc-wdm subdriver support was added, this split was used to let cdc-wdm drive the QMI control interface and qmi_wwan drive the wwna data interface. This split driver model has a number of issues: - qmi_wwan must match on the data interface descriptor, which often are indistiguishable from data interfaces belonging to other CDC (like) functions like ACM - supporting a single QMI/wwan function requires adding the device to two drivers - syncronizing the probes among a number of drivers, to ensure selecting the correct driver, is difficult unless all drivers match on the same interface This patch resolves these problems by using the same probing mechanism as cdc-ether for devices with a two- interface USB descriptor layout. This makes the driver behave consistently, supporting both the control and data part of the QMI/wwan function, regardless of the USB descriptors.
