The term "modems" here has a lot of legacy connotations.  First of
which is, userspace handles this today as tty devices, why aren't
you doing the same here?  Why does this have to be something
"special"?

The main focus over there the modem IPC.

Over where?

What "modem IPC"?

I mean the dir which is added in this patch, "modem_shm" is added to have a
separate list of such modem access drivers.

The modem that I am referring to is an on chip modem in embedded platforms.
Applications of these being mobile, tablets etc.
So the APE and modem resides on a single chip.
