In addition to GKH's answer, what I have seen...

Some Android code to talk to the radio is written in plain java, like
https://chromium.googlesource.com/android_tools/+/18728e9dd5dd66d4f5edf1b792e77e2b544a1cb0/sdk/sources/android-19/com/android/internal/telephony/CommandsInterface.java
.

The GNU Radio folks may have relevant information. I seem to recall
they work from userland and not the kernel, though.
