[PATCH wpan-next 00/11] ieee802154: mac802154: wireless transformation

[Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com>]

Hi,

this is the first part to make the mac802154/ieee802154 implementation like
wireless. There is much things do to but at around 10 patches I will send
a complete patch series of my work to make the review easier.

This patch renames more variables/structs like it's also available in wireless.
I think this was done also in the current implementation but all variables
was renamed and now I get confuse about priv/ipriv (I call it priv variable hell)
and netdev/ieee802154_dev.

We rename the ieee802154_dev to ieee802154_hw, like a ieee80211_hw.

The mac802154_priv is now ieee802154_local, like a ieee80211_local.
The mac802154_sub_if_data is now ieee802154_sub_if_data.

Also change the variables name to this so there should never be a variable priv
and you don't know if it's a mac802154_sub_if_data or mac802154_priv. That's
confusing me so much sometimes. Now it's also clear to see mutliple dereferencing.
Please send patches for this, if you like.

The next step is the frame parsing like wireless and interface registration like
wireless.


The last one replace the receiving workqueue with a tasklet, which is also used
in wireless. This have a less overhead and I removed a kmalloc call in this hot
path.
