mac802154: Avoid new associations while disassociating

While disassociating from a PAN ourselves, let's set the maximum number
of associations temporarily to zero to be sure no new device tries to
associate with us.

mac802154: Follow the number of associated devices

Track the count of associated devices. Limit the number of associations
using the value provided by the user if any. If we reach the maximum
number of associations, we tell the device we are at capacity. If the
user do not want to accept any more associations, it may specify the
value 0 to the maximum number of associations, which will lead to an
access denied error status returned to the peers trying to associate.

mac802154: Handle disassociations

Devices may decide to disassociate from their coordinator for different
reasons (device turning off, coordinator signal strength too low, etc),
the MAC layer just has to send a disassociation notification.

If the ack of the disassociation notification is not received, the
device may consider itself disassociated anyway.

mac802154: Handle associating

Joining a PAN officially goes by associating with a coordinator. This
coordinator may have been discovered thanks to the beacons it sent in
the past. Add support to the MAC layer for these associations, which
require:
- Sending an association request
- Receiving an association response

The association response contains the association status, eventually a
reason if the association was unsuccessful, and finally a short address
that we should use for intra-PAN communication from now on, if we
required one (which is the default, and not yet configurable).

mac802154: Handle basic beaconing

Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support
for sending beacons. Coordinators may be requested to send beacons in a
beacon enabled PAN in order for the other devices around to self
discover the available PANs automatically.

Changing the channels is prohibited while a beacon operation is
ongoing.

The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval
depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the
interval order provided.

Sending beacons in response to a BEACON_REQ frame (ie. answering active
scans) is not yet supported.

This initial patchset has no security support (llsec).

mac802154: Handle passive scanning

Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support
for passive scans. Scans are requested by the user and can be aborted.

Changing channels manually is prohibited during scans.

The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval
depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the
duration order provided. More advanced drivers with internal scheduling
capabilities might require additional care but there is none mainline
yet.

Received beacons during a passive scan are processed in a work queue and
their result forwarded to the upper layer.

Active scanning is not supported yet.

mac802154: Prepare forcing specific symbol duration

The scan logic will bypass the whole ->set_channel() logic from the top
by calling the driver hook to just switch between channels when
required.

We can no longer rely on the "current" page/channel settings to set the
right symbol duration. Let's add these as new parameters to allow
providing the page/channel couple that we want.

There is no functional change.

mac802154: set filter at drv_start()

The current filtering level is set on the first interface up on a wpan
phy. If we support scan functionality we need to change the filtering
level on the fly on an operational phy and switching back again.

This patch will move the receive mode parameter e.g. address filter and
promiscuous mode to the drv_start() functionality to allow changing the
receive mode on an operational phy not on first ifup only. In future this
should be handled on driver layer because each hardware has it's own way
to enter a specific filtering level. However this should offer to switch
to mode IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE and back to
IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS.

Only IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS and IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE
are somewhat supported by current hardware. All other filtering levels
can be supported in future but will end in IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE as
the receive part can kind of "emulate" those receive paths by doing
additional filtering routines.

There are in total three filtering levels in the code:
- the per-interface default level (should not be changed)
- the required per-interface level (mac commands may play with it)
- the actual per-PHY (hw) level that is currently in use

net: mac802154: Introduce a tx queue flushing mechanism

Right now we are able to stop a queue but we have no indication if a
transmission is ongoing or not.

Thanks to recent additions, we can track the number of ongoing
transmissions so we know if the last transmission is over. Adding on top
of it an internal wait queue also allows to be woken up asynchronously
when this happens. If, beforehands, we marked the queue to be held and
stopped it, we end up flushing and stopping the tx queue.

Thanks to this feature, we will soon be able to introduce a synchronous
transmit API.

net: mac802154: Bring the ability to hold the transmit queue

Create a hold_txs atomic variable and increment/decrement it when
relevant, ie. when we want to hold the queue or release it: currently
all the "stopped" situations are suitable, but very soon we will more
extensively use this feature for MLME purposes.

Upon release, the atomic counter is decremented and checked. If it is
back to 0, then the netif queue gets woken up. This makes the whole
process fully transparent, provided that all the users of
ieee802154_wake/stop_queue() now call ieee802154_hold/release_queue()
instead.

In no situation individual drivers should call any of these helpers
manually in order to avoid messing with the counters. There are other
functions more suited for this purpose which have been introduced, such
as the _xmit_complete() and _xmit_error() helpers which will handle all
that for them.

One advantage is that, as no more drivers call the stop/wake helpers
directly, we can safely stop exporting them and only declare the
hold/release ones in a header only accessible to the core.

net: mac802154: Set durations automatically

As depicted in the IEEE 802.15.4 specification, modulation/bands are
tight to a number of page/channels so we can for most of them derive the
durations automatically.

The two locations that must call this new helper to set the variou
symbol durations are:
- when manually requesting a channel change though the netlink interface
- at PHY creation, once the device driver has set the default
page/channel

If an information is missing, the symbol duration is not touched, a
debug message is eventually printed. This keeps the compatibility with
the unconverted drivers for which it was too complicated for me to find
their precise information. If they initially provided a symbol duration,
it would be kept. If they don't, the symbol duration value is left
untouched.

Once the symbol duration derived, the lifs and sifs durations are
updated as well.

mac802154: cfg: remove test and set checks

This patch removes several checks if a value is really changed. This
makes only sense if we have another layer call e.g. calling the
driver_ops which is done by callbacks like "set_channel".

For MAC settings which need to be set by phy registers (if the phy
supports that handling) this is set by doing an interface up currently
and are not direct driver_ops calls, so we remove the checks from these
configuration callbacks.

Calling resume will call the start driver callback, which starts receiving
again and allow to transmit frames.

This was tested only with the fakelb driver and a qemu vm by doing the
following commands:

echo "devices" > /sys/power/pm_test
echo "freeze" > /sys/power/state

mac802154: move interface add handling in iface

This patch moves and renames the mac802154_add_iface and
mac802154_netdev_register functions into iface.c. The function
mac802154_add_iface is renamed to ieee802154_if_add which is a similar naming
convention like mac80211.

symbol 'mac802154_config_ops' was not declared. Should it be static?

cfg802154: convert deprecated iface add and del

This patch removes the wpan_phy callbacks for add and del an interface
on a phy. Instead we introduce deprecated cfg802154 callbacks for this.
Furthermore we introduce a new netlink interface nl802154 which use
different callbacks. The deprecated function is to have a backwards
compatibility with the current netlink interface.

struct should be the only one interface between ieee802154 to mac802154
or possible HardMAC drivers.
