Why "data"? Why not just "rmnet"??

Btw, what is "RmNet". Google does not give me much. Is it some
priprietady Qualcomm thing? Is there some standard behind it?

Hi Jiri

Rm interface is used to describe an application processor tethered to
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. modems. Since these are netdevices,

I believe that this code should be a part of that driver, not a generic
code in net/

the term RmNet is used. I don't think there are published standards
available for this but I can provide relevant information and
document it as well.

rmnet was used for a USB based physical transport earlier, hence
this platform agnostic multiplexing driver was named as rmnet_data.

ok, so?
