This patch removes netif_rx_ni call. Instead we call netif_receive_skb,
we can do that since commit c5c47e67bcd24638a059b1b5e9ec18c95f8634ca

b7889497d3 mac802154: rx: simplify crc receive handling
This patch change the actual crc handling while receive. Currently the
IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM flag is used to filter a frame with a bad crc.
This patch changes the behaviour of IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM to add a
crc while receiving for the monitor interface. After monitor receiving
we remove the crc for frame parsing. This affect the driver layer
because all drivers sets IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM and deliver without
checksum.

90386a7e3b mac802154: separate omit tx/rx flags
This patch splits the IEEE802154_HW_OMIT_CKSUM hardware flag into
IEEE802154_HW_TX_OMIT_CKSUM and IEEE802154_HW_RX_OMIT_CKSUM. This is
useful to deliver the received crc from the driver layer to the monitor
interface. At the moment we can't do that without change the xmit
handling.

The received checksum should be visible in monitor mode only.

This removes the call of monitor receive funktion when any interface
type call xmit. There exist no such use case that a monitor interface
should receive the actual sending frame. One use case could be that a
wpan interface and monitor interface could be running at the same time
on one phy. Then the monitor interface receives the wpan frames also.
Furthermore we adding support for promiscous mode setting. With
promiscous mode setting we can't run a wpan and monitor interface at the
same time.

c5c47e67bc mac802154: rx: use tasklet instead workqueue
Tasklets have much less overhead than workqueues. This patch also
removes the heap allocation for the worker on receiving path.
Like mac80211 we should prefer use a tasklet here instead a workqueue to
getting fast out of interrupt context when ieee802154_rx_irqsafe is
called by driver. Like wireless inside the tasklet context we should
call netif_receive_skb instead netif_rx_ni anymore.

32edc40ae6 ieee802154: change _cb handling slightly
The current mac_cb handling of ieee802154 is rather awkward and limited.
Decompose the single flags field into multiple fields with the meanings
of each subfield of the flags field to make future extensions (for
example, link-layer security) easier. Also don't set the frame sequence
number in upper layers, since that's a thing the MAC is supposed to set
on frame transmit - we set it on header creation, but assuming that
upper layers do not blindly duplicate our headers, this is fine.

32bad7e30f mac802154: add wpan device-class support
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.
