[PATCH 0/2] Handle Uncompressed IPv6 on 6LoWPAN

[Alan Ott]

This has been tested by exchanging data with with the Contiki operating
system using a Redwire Econotag.  Contiki had to be set to send uncompressed
data, and had to have a #define modified to enable reception and processing
of header-compressed packets when not set to send compressed data.

This is not indented properly.

When a function call spans multiple lines, the second and subsequent
lines should be indented to the column right after the openning
parenthesis of the call itself, using a combination of TAB and
SPC characters as needed.

Thanks David, I'll fix and re-submit.
