Rémi Denis-Courmont a015f6f499 Phonet: kill the ST-Ericsson pipe controller Kconfig
This is now a run-time choice so that a single kernel can support both
old and new generation ISI modems. Support for manually enabling the
pipe flow is removed as it did not work properly, does not fit well
with the socket API, and I am not aware of any use at the moment.

Rémi Denis-Courmont a131d82266 Phonet: mark the pipe controller as EXPERIMENTAL
There are a bunch of issues that need to be fixed, including:
 - GFP_KERNEL allocations from atomic context
   (and GFP_ATOMIC in process context),
 - abuse of the setsockopt() call convention,
 - unprotected/unlocked static variables...

IMHO, we will need to alter the userspace ABI when we fix it. So mark
the configuration option as EXPERIMENTAL for the time being (or should
it be BROKEN instead?).

Rémi Denis-Courmont 6d8e74ed37 Phonet: advise against enabling the pipe controller
As it currently is, the new code path is not compatible with existing
Nokia modems. This would break existing userspace for Nokia modem, such
as the existing oFono ISI driver.

Kumar Sanghvi 8d98efa84b Phonet: Implement Pipe Controller to support Nokia Slim Modems
Phonet stack assumes the presence of Pipe Controller, either in Modem or
on Application Processing Engine user-space for the Pipe data.
Nokia Slim Modems like WG2.5 used in ST-Ericsson U8500 platform do not
implement Pipe controller in them.
This patch adds Pipe Controller implemenation to Phonet stack to support
Pipe data over Phonet stack for Nokia Slim Modems.
