The cdc_mbim driver maps 802.1q VLANs to MBIM IP and DSS sessions. MBIM IP session 0 is handled as an exception and is mapped to untagged frames. This patch adds optional support for remapping MBIM IP session 0 to 802.1q VLAN ID 4094 instead. The default behaviour is not changed. The new behaviour is triggered by adding a link for this previously unsupported VLAN. The untagged mapping was chosen initially to support the assumed most common use case: Most current MBIM devices only support a single IP session (i.e. session 0 only), and using untagged frames lets the users completely ignore the additonal complexity of the multiplexing layer. But when the multiplexing features of MBIM are used, then this netdev gets a double meaning: It becomes the master interface for all the VLAN subdevs the additional sessions are mapped to, while still serving as the untagged IP interface for session 0. This can be problematic, especially when using Device Service Streams (DSS), as have become apparent recently with the availability of devices with real DSS support. Some use cases need to e.g set a MTU which is higher than allowed for IP Session 0. The dual role also leads to the situation where the IP Session 0 interface cannot be taken down without breaking unrelated IP or DSS sessions - a devastating side effect which applications managing a simple IP session cannot be expected to be aware of. A typical DHCP client will assume that it should bring the interface down after releasing the IP lease. These problems can be avoided by tagging IP session 0 packets too, making this session similar to all other multiplexed sessions. This redefines the main netdev as an upper master interface only.
