Introduce new netlink attributes for SET_PHY_ATTRS:
 * CSMA minimal backoff exponent
 * CSMA maximal backoff exponent
 * CSMA retry limit
 * frame retransmission limit

The CSMA attributes shall correspond to minBE, maxBE and maxCSMABackoffs of
802.15.4, respectively. The frame retransmission shall correspond to
maxFrameRetries of 802.15.4, unless given as -1: then the old behaviour
of the stack shall apply. For RF2xy, the old behaviour is to not do
channel sensing at all and simply send *right now*, which is not
intended behaviour for most applications and actually prohibited for
some channel/page combinations.

For all values except frame retransmission limit, the defaults of
802.15.4 apply. Frame retransmission limits are set to -1 to indicate
backward-compatible behaviour.

Since three of the four clear channel assesment modes make use of energy
detection, provide an API to set the energy detection threshold.
Driver support for this is available in at86rf230 for the RF212 chips.
Since for these chips the minimal energy detection threshold depends on
page and channel used, add a field to struct at86rf230_local that stores
the minimal threshold. Actual ED thresholds are configured as offsets
from this value.

For RF212, setting the ED threshold will not work before a channel/page
has been set due to the dependency of energy detection in the chip and
the actual channel/page selected.

The standard describes four modes of clear channel assesment: "energy
above threshold", "carrier found", and the logical and/or of these two.
Support for CCA mode setting is included in the at86rf230 driver,
predicated for RF212 chips.

Listen-before-talk is an alternative to CSMA in uncoordinated networks
and prescribed by european regulations if one wants to have a device
with radio duty cycles above 10% (or less in some bands). Add a phy
property to enable/disable LBT in the phy, including support in the
at86rf230 driver for RF212 chips.

Replace the current u8 transmit_power in wpan_phy with s8 transmit_power.
The u8 field contained the actual tx power and a tolerance field,
which no physical radio every used. Adjust sysfs entries to keep
compatibility with userspace, give tolerances of +-1dB statically there.

This patch only adds support for this in the at86rf230 driver and the
RF212 chip. Configuration calculation for RF212 is also somewhat basic,
but does the job - the RF212 datasheet gives a large table with
suggested values for combinations of TX power and page/channel, if this
does not work well, we might have to copy the whole table.

IEEE 802.15.4-2006 adds new concept: channel pages, which can contain several
channels. Add support for channel pages in the API and in the fakehard driver.

Add a netlink interface for configuration of IEEE 802.15.4 device. Also this
interface specifies events notification sent by devices towards higher layers.
