This patch removes one check on null which should be already done by
checking before for ARPHRD_IEEE802154. All ARPHRD_IEEE802154 and
ARPHRD_IEEE802154_MONITOR should have wdev->ieee802154_ptr, where
ARPHRD_IEEE802154 is currently a node interface only.

This patch moves the open count handling while doing open of a lowpan
interface. We need the packet handler register at first when one lowpan
interface is up. There exists a small case when all lowpan interfaces
are down and the 802154 packet layer is still registered. To reduce some
overhead we will register the packet layer when the first lowpan
interface comes up and unregister when the last interface will become down.

Inside the IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN subsystem we use two interfaces which
are wpan and lowpan interfaces. Instead of using always the variable
name "dev" for both we rename the "dev" variable to wdev which means the
wpan net_device and ldev which means a lowpan net_device. This avoids
confusing and always looking back to see which net_device is meant by
the variable name "dev".

This patch fixes 802.15.4 packet layer registration when mutliple
lowpan interfaces will be added. We need to register the packet layer at
the first lowpan interface and deregister it at the last interface. This
done by open_count variable which is protected by rtnl.
Additional do a quiet fix by adding dev_put(real_dev) when netdev
registration fails, which fix the refcount for the wpan dev.

This patch introduced the 6lowpan netdev private data struct. We name it
lowpan_priv and it's placed at the beginning of netdev private data. All
lowpan interfaces should allocate this room at first of netdev private
data. 6LoWPAN LL private data can be allocate by additional netdev private
data, e.g. dev->priv_size should be "sizeof(struct lowpan_priv) +
sizeof(LL_LOWPAN_PRIVATE_DATA)".

useful as default behaviour to set the ack request bit or not if we
don't know if the ack request bit should set. This is currently used for

We currently supports multiple lowpan interfaces per wpan interface. I
never saw any use case into such functionality. We drop this feature now
because it's much easier do deal with address changes inside the under
laying wpan interface.
This patch removes the multiple lowpan interface and adds a lowpan_dev
netdev pointer into the wpan_dev, if this pointer isn't null the wpan
interface belongs to the assigned lowpan interface.

This patch sets the acknowledge request bit inside the 802.15.4 mac
header when frame retries is 0 or above. The other frame retries value
which is -1 indicates that the transmitter doesn't care about an
acknowledge frame which will be ignored after transmitting if the node
sends anyway an ack frame after receiving. This is currently unnecessary
traffic if the max frame retries parameter is -1.

This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect
the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary
if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g.
address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in
hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need
to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of
ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the
locks.

Currently there exists two interface types with ARPHRD_IEEE802154. These
are the 802.15.4 interfaces and 802.15.4 6LoWPAN interfaces. This is
more a bug because some userspace applications checks on this value like
wireshark. This occurs that wireshark will always try to parse a lowpan
interface as 802.15.4 frames. With ARPHRD_6LOWPAN wireshark will parse
it as IPv6 frames which is correct.
Much applications checks on this value to readout the EUI64 mac address
which should be the same for ARPHRD_6LOWPAN. BTLE 6LoWPAN and ieee802154
6LoWPAN will share now the same ARPHRD.

6LoWPAN currently doesn't supports x-netns and works only in init_net.
With this patch, we ensure that:
- the wpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
- the 6lowpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
- the wpan interface is in the same netns than the 6lowpan interface;
- the 6lowpan interface is in init_net.
