Allows the use of the LL channel on IPA based targetds. MHI specific
functionality is split into the new rmnet_ll_mhi.c file, and IPA is
placed in rmnet_ll_ipa.c. rmnet_ll.c works as a generic interface to the
core rmnet module, and handles calling specific functions in the active
HW module to provide the low latency channel functionality.

Packets are now sent over a dedicated MHI channel when indicated by the
DFC driver.
New dedicated channel is controlled by rmnet driver. Buffers are allocated
and supplied to it as needed from a recyclable pool for RX on the channel,
and packets will be sent to it and freed manually once the channel
indicates that they have been sent.
Low latency packets can be aggregated like standard QMAP packets, but have
their own aggregation state to prevent mixing default and low latency
flows, and to allow each type of flow to use their own send functions
(i.e. dev_queue_xmit() versus rmnet_ll_send_skb()).
Low latency packets also have their own load-balancing scheme, and do not
need to use the SHS module for balancing. To facilitate this, we mark the
low latency packets with a non-zero priority value upon receipt from the
MHI chainnel and avoid sending any such marked packets to the SHS ingress
hook.
DFC has been updated with a new netlink message type to handle swapping a
list of bearers from one channel to another. The actual swap is performed
asynchronously, and separate netlink ACKs will be sent to the userspace
socket when the switch has been completed.
