Description:

The next 5.13 kernel comes with a new WWAN subsystem, that implements support for (at least for now) Qualcomm based PCI modules (with the MHI driver). Can we enable that by default in the Arch kernel? E.g.

CONFIG_WWAN=y
CONFIG_WWAN_CORE=m
CONFIG_MHI_WWAN_CTRL=m

The next stable ModemManager release will also support this.
This task depends upon
