Great to see the continued work on this.

Were you intending to follow-up with functionality to group netdevs
with the control ports?  From my quick look at v9 here it only deals
with MHI control ports (diag, QMI, AT, etc) which is great, but not the
full story.

I think that was a big part of the discussion around Johannes' earlier
series since it's often protocol-specific to tie a particular netdev
with a given control port, but that's something that's really necessary
for a good abstract userspace.

Thoughts here? I'd love to see that functionality too.

Thanks!
