Title:
  libmbim-proxy using 100% CPU on a Dell Edge Gateway 3002

Status in HWE Next:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  == Impact ==
  A Dell Edge Gateway 3002 user reported that `top` reports around 100% CPU 
usage for the libmbim-proxy process. Seen in at least 40% of their devices at 
some point during the last 6 months. The CPU keeps high at ~100% days or weeks, 
but does return back to normal without a reboot. The LTE connectivity is 
seemingly still working as usual.

  The issue starts after an EPIPE error in the syslogs: 'cdc_mbim
  1-3:1.12: nonzero urb status received: -EPIPE'.

  == Fix ==
  8fec9355a968 USB: cdc-wdm: ignore -EPIPE from GetEncapsulatedResponse
  This has been in mainline kernel since 4.14.

  == Testcase ==
  Connect to the LTE network and see if libmbim-proxy uses 100% after some 
point.

  == Risk of Regression ==
  Low, since
  1. Already tested by original reporter and no issue found after more than a 
week (usually it fails twice in a week).
  2. Ignoring -EPIPE is the default behavior after 4.14.
