Small rename to use the name workqueue than dev_workqueue. To bring the
same naming convention like wireless into 802.15.4.

This patch replace the mac802154_to_priv macro with a static inline
function named hw_to_local. This brings a similar naming convention like
mac80211 stack.

This patch rename the mac802154_priv to ieee802154_local. The
mac802154_priv structure is like ieee80211_local and so we name it
ieee802154_local.

The identical struct of the wireless stack implementation is named
ieee80211_hw. This is useful to name the variable hw instead of get
confusing with netdev dev variable.

This patch moves the mac802154.h internal header to ieee802154_i.h like
the wireless stack ieee80211_i.h file. This avoids confusing with the
not internal header include/net/mac802154.h header. Additional we get
the same naming conversion like mac80211 for this file.

Only one WPAN devices can be active at any given time, so only deliver
packets to that one interface that is actually up. Multiple monitors may
be up at any given time, but we don't have to deliver to monitors that
are down either.

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.

One of my pet coding style peeves is the practice of
adding extra return; at the end of function.
Kill several instances of this in network code.
I suppose some coccinelle wizardy could do this automatically.

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.

Support for monitor device intended to capture all the network activity.
This interface could be used by networks sniffers and is already
supported by WireShark. That's a good test point to check that basic
MAC support works.
