Parameter negotiation has been introduced with
commit 92f1f0c3290d ("tty: n_gsm: add parameter negotiation support")
However, means to set individual parameters per DLCI are not yet
implemented. Furthermore, it is currently not possible to keep a DLCI half
open until the user application sets the right parameters for it. This is
required to allow a user application to set its specific parameters before
the underlying link is established. Otherwise, the link is opened and
re-established right afterwards if the user application sets incompatible
parameters. This may be an unexpected behavior for the peer.
Add parameter 'wait_config' to 'gsm_config' to support setups where the
DLCI specific user application sets its specific parameters after open()
and before the link gets fully established. Setting this to zero disables
the user application specific DLCI configuration option.
Add the ioctls 'GSMIOC_GETCONF_DLCI' and 'GSMIOC_SETCONF_DLCI' for the
ldisc and virtual ttys. This gets/sets the DLCI specific parameters and may
trigger a reconnect of the DLCI if incompatible values have been set. Only
the parameters for the DLCI associated with the virtual tty can be set or
retrieved if called on these.
Add remark within the documentation to introduce the new ioctls.

n_gsm is based on the 3GPP 07.010 and its newer version is the 3GPP 27.010.
See https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=1516
The changes from 07.010 to 27.010 are non-functional. Therefore, I refer to
the newer 27.010 here. Chapters 5.4.6.3.4 and 5.1.8.1.3 describe the test
command which can be used to test the mux connection between both sides.
Currently, no algorithm is implemented to make use of this command. This
requires that each multiplexed upper layer protocol supervises the
underlying muxer connection to handle possible connection losses.
Introduce ioctl commands and functions to optionally enable keep alive
handling via the test command as described in chapter 5.4.6.3.4. A single
incrementing octet "ka_num" is being used for unique identification of each
single keep alive packet. Retries will use the same "ka_num" value as the
original packet. Retry count and interval are taken from the general
parameters N2 and T2.
Add usage description and basic example for the new ioctl to the n_gsm
documentation.
Note that support for the test command is mandatory and already present in
the muxer implementation since the very first version.
Also note that the previous ioctl structure gsm_config cannot be extended
due to missing checks against zero of the field "unused".

gsm_config and gsm_netconfig includes unused fields that have been included
to allow future extension without changing the structure size.
Unfortunately, no checks have been included for these field. The actual
value set by old user space code remains undefined.
This means that future extensions can not use these fields without breaking
old user space code which may set unexpected values.
Mark these fields accordingly to avoid breaking code changes.

Guessing the first tty for a gsm0710 multiplexed serial device is not
currently possible, which makes it racy to use with multiple modems.
Add a way to map the physical serial tty to its related mux devices
using an ioctl.

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

We use __u8 in linux/gsmmux.h, so include linux/types.h to have that
defined.

linux/gsmmux.h defines a user interface and therefore should be
installed with other headers.
Make the file include:
* linux/if.h for IFNAMSIZ
* linux/ioctl.h for _IO* macros
