    usbnet: CDC EEM support (v5) · 9f722c09

    This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side
    driver to support USB EEM devices.
    
    EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently
    supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver.  One key difference is
    that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to
    manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle
    that part of USB.  It also avoids a separate USB interface for
    control and status updates.
