Foster Snowhill a2d274c62e usbnet: ipheth: add CDC NCM support
Recent iOS releases support CDC NCM encapsulation on RX. This mode is
the default on macOS and Windows. In this mode, an iOS device may include
one or more Ethernet frames inside a single URB.

Freshly booted iOS devices start in legacy mode, but are put into
NCM mode by the official Apple driver. When reconnecting such a device
from a macOS/Windows machine to a Linux host, the device stays in
NCM mode, making it unusable with the legacy ipheth driver code.

To correctly support such a device, the driver has to either support
the NCM mode too, or put the device back into legacy mode.

To match the behaviour of the macOS/Windows driver, and since there
is no documented control command to revert to legacy mode, implement
NCM support. The device is attempted to be put into NCM mode by default,
and falls back to legacy mode if the attempt fails.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
