Revision c9cedbba0fc591e1c0587f838932ca3f3c6fec57 authored by Dan Williams on 08 September 2010, 07:50:47 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 10 September 2010, 04:41:59 UTC
The 'wwan' devtype is meant for devices that require preconfiguration
and *every* time setup before the ethernet interface can be used, like
cellular modems which require a series of setup commands on serial ports
or other mechanisms before the ethernet interface will handle packets.

As ipheth only requires one-per-hotplug pairing setup with no
preconfiguration (like APN, phone #, etc) and the network interface is
usable at any time after that initial setup, remove the incorrect
devtype wwan.
