This patch introduce support for IPHC stateful address compression. It
will offer the context table via one debugfs entry.
This debugfs has and directory for each cid entry for the context table.
Inside each cid directory there exists the following files:
- "active": If the entry is added or deleted. The context table is
original a list implementation, this flag will indicate if the
context is part of list or not.
- "prefix": The ipv6 prefix.
- "prefix_length": The prefix length for the prefix.
- "compression": The compression flag according RFC6775.
This part should be moved into sysfs after some testing time.
Also the debugfs entry contains a "show" file which is a pretty-printout
for the current context table information.

This patch will introduce a 6lowpan entry into the debugfs if enabled.
Inside this 6lowpan directory we create a subdirectories of all 6lowpan
interfaces to offer a per interface debugfs support.

This patch introduces register and unregister functionality for lowpan
interfaces. While register a lowpan interface there are several things
which need to be initialize by the 6lowpan subsystem. Upcoming
functionality need to register/unregister per interface components e.g.
debugfs entry.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing
inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for
supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154.
We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there
exists already code for handling short addresses in
lowpan_header_decompress.
The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN
linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters
and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type
before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and
then source address, which is the same like all others functions where
destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header,
lowpan_header_compress, etc.
This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer
specific code into the generic branch.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_compress function by removing
unused parameters like "len" and drop static value parameters of
protocol type. Instead we really check the protocol type inside inside
the skb structure. Also we drop the use of IEEE802154_ADDR_LEN which is
link-layer specific. Instead we using EUI64_ADDR_LEN which should always
the default case for now.

This patch moves values for all lowpan interface to the shared
implementation of 6lowpan. This patch also quietly fixes the forgotten
IFF_NO_QUEUE flag for the bluetooth 6LoWPAN interface. An identically
commit is 4afbc0d ("net: 6lowpan: convert to using IFF_NO_QUEUE") which
wasn't changed for bluetooth 6lowpan.
All 6lowpan interfaces should be virtual with IFF_NO_QUEUE, using EUI64
address length, the mtu size is 1280 (IPV6_MIN_MTU) and the netdev type
is ARPHRD_6LOWPAN.

This patch cleanups needed_headroom, needed_tailroom and hard_header_len
fields for wpan and lowpan interfaces.
For wpan interfaces the worst case mac header len should be part of
needed_headroom, currently this is set as hard_header_len, but
hard_header_len should be set to the minimum header length which xmit
call assumes and this is the minimum frame length of 802.15.4.
The hard_header_len value will check inside send callbacl of AF_PACKET
raw sockets.
For lowpan interfaces, if fragmentation isn't needed the skb will
call dev_hard_header for 802154 layer and queue it afterwards. This
happens without new skb allocation, so we need the same headroom and
tailroom lengths like 802154 inside 802154 6lowpan layer. At least we
assume as minimum header length an ipv6 header size.

This patch complete reworks the evaluation of 6lowpan dispatch value by
introducing a receive handler mechanism for each dispatch value.
A list of changes:
- Doing uncompression on-the-fly when FRAG1 is received, this require
some special handling for 802.15.4 lltype in generic 6lowpan branch
for setting the payload length correct.
- Fix dispatch mask for fragmentation.
- Add IPv6 dispatch evaluation for FRAG1.
- Add skb_unshare for dispatch which might manipulate the skb data
buffer.

This patch introduced the 6lowpan netdev private data struct. We name it
lowpan_priv and it's placed at the beginning of netdev private data. All
lowpan interfaces should allocate this room at first of netdev private
data. 6LoWPAN LL private data can be allocate by additional netdev private
data, e.g. dev->priv_size should be "sizeof(struct lowpan_priv) +
sizeof(LL_LOWPAN_PRIVATE_DATA)".
