The driver enables a virtual network interface for communicating with a dedicated low power chip over ISHTP.

This series cherry-pick from linux-intel-5.13 and with a proper fix for updated kernel data structures.

Upstream kernel policy requires that each commit stand on its own, i.e., 
it must not break the build. I suggest that you squash patch 1 and 2 
together and describe the extent of your changes in the backport 
description. I would also make 'UBUNTU: [Config] 
CONFIG_INTEL_ISHTP_VNIC=m' the first patch in the series.
