I would be very surprised if this issue was due to changes in the
kernel driver. Are you able to post those qmi_wwan driver changes
somewhere to review? Or, could you ask the manufacturer to do so?

MM git master has additional changes 5G related, but I believe
everything should work as expected in MM 1.14 as long as you're using
the modem in QMI mode. I would first validate that; i.e. what's the
output of "mmcli -m 0"?

And then, I would probably go on and either enable debug logging in MM
(launching the daemon manually with --debug or otherwise running mmcli
-G DEBUG to change the level on runtime"), and see what QMI messages
are being transferred between the module and MM.

You could also try running qmicli NAS operations like qmicli
--nas-get-system-info and --nas-get-signal-info and such.

Also, is this 5G NSA or 5G SA? There are some reports about 5G SA
IIRC, e.g.
