Yeah, but you won't get it :)

The 4 bytes before "7E:5E:2A:7E" in the raw data are the context IP
type for basic-connect set & reply messages.

MM is certainly requesting an IPV4V6 (0x00000003) bearer from the
modem.  The K5150 returns that same bearer type in its basic-
connect/set response.  But the K5160 replies that it has activated an
IPV4 (0x00000001) context instead, despite the fact that it apparently
provides IPv6 configuration too.

For further investigation, can you change this line in
connect_set_ready():

                ctx->ip_type = ip_type;

to:

		ctx->ip_type = MBIM_CONTEXT_IP_TYPE_IPV4V6;

and then see if you actually get IPv6 connectivity out of the modem?
 We need to know if the modem can actually do IPV4V6 and it's simply
lying to us in the basic-connect/set response, or whether it can't do
IPv6 (and thus isn't lying in basic-connect/set) but is lying when the
IP configuration is queried.
