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.

Have mac802154 header_ops.create fail with -EMSGSIZE if the length
passed will be too large to fit a frame. Since 6lowpan will ensure that
no packet payload will be too large, pass a length of 0 there. 802.15.4
dgram sockets will also return -EMSGSIZE on payloads larger than the
device MTU instead of -EINVAL.

Use the operations on 802.15.4 header structs introduced in a previous
patch to create and parse all headers in the mac802154 stack. This patch
reduces code duplication between different parts of the mac802154 stack
that needed information from headers, and also fixes a few bugs that
seem to have gone unnoticed until now:
* 802.15.4 dgram sockets would return a slightly incorrect value for
the SIOCINQ ioctl
* mac802154 would not drop frames with the "security enabled" bit set,
even though it does not support security, in violation of the
standard

Enable sparse warnings about endianness, replace the remaining fields
regarding network operations without explicit endianness annotations
with such that are annotated, and propagate this through the entire
stack.
Uses of ieee802154_addr_sa are not changed yet, this patch is only
concerned with all other fields (such as address filters, operation
parameters and the likes).

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.

Drop the function for recalculate mac header length in upper layers
which was static and works for intra pan communication only.

Increase the buffer length from 10 to 300 packets. Consider that traffic on
mac802154 devices will often be 6LoWPAN, and a full-length (1280 octet)
IPv6 packet will fragment into 15 6LoWPAN fragments (because the MTU of
IEEE 802.15.4 is 127). A 300-packet queue is really 20 full-length IPv6
packets.
With a queue length of 10, an entire IPv6 packet was unable to get queued
at one time, causing fragments to be dropped, and making reassembly
impossible.

When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a
ratelimit warning
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
for 10 times.
This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has
to be used from process/softirq context.
The process/softirq context will be called from fakelb driver.
See linux-kernel commit 481a819 for similar fix.

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.
