You can see it being used by the user-space tools. E.g.,
ben-wpan/tools/atrf-txrx/atrf-txrx.c:rtt_slave_hmac
and
ben-wpan/tools/lib/atusb-common.c atusb_{rx_mode,rx,tx}

Yes, it has to know at least which set of states to go to.

Does this have to be fast ? From reading the WPAN standard, I
got the impression that these settings were fairly static.

If I remember correctly, he took networking under his wings
in the course of this (rather long-running) project.

There could be other users even if there are no in-kernel users
right now. Note that the SPI pin assignment is device-specific
does not have to follow any convention (such as MMC SPI mode.)
