Hi all,

the following patch series add basic support for IEEE 802.15.4 Medium Access
Control layer.

The IEEE 802.15.4 Working Group focuses on the standardization of the
bottom two layers of ISO/OSI protocol stack: Physical (PHY) and MAC.
The MAC layer provides access control to a shared channel and reliable
data delivery.

This series provide only basic features:
 - interface for drivers registration
 - RX/TX datapaths
 - reduced mlme operations
 - monitor device type support (used by network sniffers, e.g. Wireshark)
 - IEEE 802.15.4 loopback driver
 - documentation update


--
Since last post, series has been reworked to provide support for monitor device
and loopback driver only.

The following changes since commit d1d182e00d72300e05b18e28372fab003d8d4a58:

  wimax/i2400m: remove an unused variable (2011-12-16 15:57:03 -0500)
