This patch includes code implementing the modem functionality. There are several communication paths between the AP and modem, separate from the main data path provided by IPA. SMP2P provides primitive messaging and interrupt capability, and QMI allows more complex out-of-band messaging to occur between entities on the AP and modem. (SMP2P and QMI support are added by the next patch.) Management of these (plus the network device implementing the data path) is done by code within "ipa_modem.c". Sort of unrelated, this patch also includes the code supporting the microcontroller CPU present on the IPA. The microcontroller can be used to implement special handling of packets, but at this time we don't support that. Still, it is a component that needs to be initialized, and in the event of a crash we need to do some synchronization between the AP and the microcontroller.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
