Mark Kamichoff 2ae40ee987 net/usb: Add IPv6 support to the LG-VL600 LTE USB modem driver
The LG-VL600 LTE USB modem supports IPv6, but uses and expects an IPv4
ethertype (0x800) for these packets instead of the standard 0x86dd.
This patch peeks at the IP version in the L3 header and sets the
ethertype appropriately for IPv6 packets.

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.
