Better name it libnl-3 here as it does not work with libnl-1 and libnl-2

Maybe mention the other drivers we have mainline here as well? CC2520 
and MRF24j40 are fully supported or not?

As a sidenote I build and updated the firmware for my atusb and did some 
initial testing. Nothing on the RF side yet as I wait for more hardware 
to test against. I'm willing to bring this driver mainline and update it 
as needed. So far I only made sure that atusb and at86rf230 share the 
same header file for register defines to avoid duplication.

Once I have other hardware I will test the RF side of things and start 
to work on asnyc xmit. Also need to talk to Werner if he is happy with 
the fw interface. After that I will send out a RFC for it.
