This patch introduce a flag property for the wpan phy structure.
The current flag settings in ieee802154_hw are accessable in mac802154
layer only which is okay for flags which indicates MAC handling which
are done by phy. For real PHY layer settings like cca mode, transmit
power, cca energy detection level.
The difference between these flags are that the MAC handling flags are
only handled in mac802154/HardMac layer e.g. on an interface up. The phy
settings are direct netlink calls from nl802154 into the driver layer
and the nl802154 need to have a chance to check if the driver supports
this handling before sending to the next layer.
We also check now on PHY flags while dumping and setting pib attributes.
In comparing with MIB attributes the 802.15.4 gives us an default value
which we assume when a transceiver implement less functionality. In case
of MIB settings the nl802154 layer doesn't need to check on the
ieee802154_hw flags then.

The current cca setting handle is a driver specific call. We need to
introduce some 802.15.4 specific layer and mapping 802.15.4 cca modes to
driver specific ones inside the 802.15.4 driver. This patch will add
such 802.15.4 layer and mapping the cca settings to driver specific ones.

All PHY attributes should be directly set to the transceiver after netlink.
MAC attributes should be set by interface up. Currently the macparams
netlink cmd contains mixed attributes of phy and mac settings. This patch
moves all phy settings to the netlink receive function for setting macparams.
This is the only way which doesn't change the userspace API and keep the
deprecated netlink interface alive.

This patch moves the setting of hardware extended address filtering
inside of interface up instead doing it directly inside of netlink interface.
Also we don't need to set the sdata extended attribute in netlink. This
is already done by ndo_set_mac_address of net_device_ops.

Commit 9b2777d608 (ieee802154: add TX power control to wpan_phy)
and following erroneously added CSMA and CCA parameters for 802.15.4
devices as PHY parameters, while they are actually MAC parameters and
can differ for any two WPAN instances. Since it is now sensible to have
multiple WPAN devices with differing CSMA/CCA parameters, make these
parameters MAC parameters instead.

The struct as currently defined uses host byte order for some fields,
and most big endian/EUI display byte order for other fields. Inside the
stack, endianness should ideally match network byte order where possible
to minimize the number of byteswaps done in critical paths, but this
patch does not address this; it is only preparatory.

Every real 802.15.4 transceiver, which works with software MAC layer,
can be classified as a wpan device in this stack. So the wpan device
implementation provides missing link in datapath between the device
drivers and the Linux network queue.
According to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard each packet can be one of the
following types:
- beacon
- MAC layer command
- ACK
- data
This patch adds support for the data packet-type only, but this is
enough to perform data transmission and receiving over radio.
