Johan Hovold 3f0c247910 USB: serial: option: reimplement interface masking
commit c3a65808f04a8426481b63a4fbd9392f009f6330 upstream.

Reimplement interface masking using device flags stored directly in the
device-id table. This will make it easier to add and maintain device-id
entries by using a more compact and readable notation compared to the
current implementation (which manages pairs of masks in separate
blacklist structs).

Two convenience macros are used to flag an interface as either reserved
or as not supporting modem-control requests:

	{ USB_DEVICE(TELIT_VENDOR_ID, TELIT_PRODUCT_ME910_DUAL_MODEM),
	  .driver_info = NCTRL(0) | RSVD(3) },

For now, we limit the highest maskable interface number to seven, which
allows for (up to 16) additional device flags to be added later should
need arise.

Note that this will likely need to be backported to stable in order to
make future device-id backports more manageable.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
