I sorted my problem out last night. The ieee802154 and mac802154 modules were loaded at boot but the af_802154 module was not. Since this is the module that registers the IEEE80154 socket with the kernel that explains the error. Should the af_802154 module be a dependency of the ieee802154 and/or mac802154 module? I understand they they do not need the af_802154 driver to be loaded but aren't they pretty much unusable without it?
