Subject: [PATCH] add support for Sierra Wireless qcserial NMEA-0183 interface
Sierra Wireless EM 74xx modems come with a serial port outputting
NMEA-0183 GPS sentences. In order to make it work, the magic string
'$GPS_START' needs to be written to the modem, as only then the modem
firmware starts sending NMEA-0183 output.
Add option 'sierragpsstart' which if set to anything else than 0 will
make kplex send the magic string when the device is opened.
