Yes, but this will require a bit of redesign.  Note that this code is
shared with cdc_mbim, which might have to add multiple NDPs for
multiplexed sessions.  In theory up to 512 different, but that is so
unlinkely that we can ignore it.  We could set a fixed limit
significantly lower than that if necessary.

I'd really like to refactor this code to simply queue the skbs, creating
the linear NTB only when the queue is flushed.  Then we'll have all the
info we need and can order the contents any way we want without adding
unnecessary padding.

Sure.  That is definitely an alternative if we don't want to touch the
generic driver.

But making the generic driver flexible enough to accommodate any device
would be preferable.  I do hope we can do that.
