When device side MTU is larger than host side MTU, the packets (typically rmnet packets) are split over multiple MHI transfers. In that case, fragments must be re-aggregated to recover the packet before forwarding to upper layer. A fragmented packet result in -EOVERFLOW MHI transaction status for each of its fragments, except the final one. Such transfer was previously considered as error and fragments were simply dropped. This change adds re-aggregation mechanism using skb chaining, via skb frag_list. A warning (once) is printed since this behavior usually comes from a misconfiguration of the device (e.g. modem MTU).

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.
