Andrzej Zaborowski 7a635ea989 net/usb: Ethernet quirks for the LG-VL600 4G modem
This adds a driver for the CDC Ethernet part of this modem.  The
device's ID is blacklisted in cdc_ether.c and is white-listed in
this new driver because of the quirks needed to make it useful.
The modem's firmware exposes a CDC ACM port for modem control and a
CDC Ethernet port for network data.  The descriptors look fine but
both ports actually are some sort of multiplexers requiring non-
standard headers added/removed from every packet or they get
ignored.  All information is based on a usb traffic log from a
Windows machine.

On the Verizon 4G network I've seen speeds up to 1.1MB/s so far with
this driver, a speed-o-meter site reports 16.2Mbps/10.5Mbps.
Userspace scripts are required to talk to the CDC ACM port.

/*
* The device has a CDC ACM port for modem control (it claims to be
* CDC ACM anyway) and a CDC Ethernet port for actual network data.
* It will however ignore data on both ports that is not encapsulated
* in a specific way, any data returned is also encapsulated the same
* way. The headers don't seem to follow any popular standard.
*
* This driver adds and strips these headers from the ethernet frames
* sent/received from the CDC Ethernet port. The proprietary header
* replaces the standard ethernet header in a packet so only actual
* ethernet frames are allowed. The headers allow some form of
* multiplexing by using non standard values of the .h_proto field.
* Windows/Mac drivers do send a couple of such frames to the device
* during initialisation, with protocol set to 0x0906 or 0x0b06 and (what
* seems to be) a flag in the .dummy_flags. This doesn't seem necessary
* for modem operation but can possibly be used for GPS or other funcitons.
