Jian-Hong Pan 8ac5ac1b0e doc: linux-wpan: Change the old function names to the lastest function names
The function declaration in the lastest include/net/mac802154.h has been
changed since v3.19.

ieee802154_alloc_device => ieee802154_alloc_hw
ieee802154_free_device => ieee802154_free_hw
ieee802154_register_device => ieee802154_register_hw
ieee802154_unregister_device => ieee802154_unregister_hw

However, the description in the Device drivers API section of
Documentation/networking/ieee802154.txt is still in the state of
v3.18.63.

Lennert Buytenhek b251d4de67 Documentation/networking/ieee802154.txt: fix various inaccuracies.
* Update the linux-zigbee git:// repository URL.

* Remove the MLME section as the current kernel does not provide a
  full 802.15.4 MLME implementation.

* The hardmac example driver 'fakehard' was removed some time ago.

* The IEEE 802.15.4 device drivers live in drivers/net/ieee802154/,
  not in drivers/ieee802154/.

* The IEEE 802.15.4 MTU is 127 bytes, not 128 bytes.

* Some of the 6LoWPAN code lives in net/6lowpan/.

Werner Almesberger 56aa091d60 ieee802154/nl-mac.c: make some MLME operations optional
Check for NULL before calling the following operations from "struct
ieee802154_mlme_ops": assoc_req, assoc_resp, disassoc_req, start_req,
and scan_req.

This fixes a current oops where those functions are called but not
implemented. It also updates the documentation to clarify that they
are now optional by design. If a call to an unimplemented function
is attempted, the kernel returns EOPNOTSUPP via netlink.

The following operations are still required: get_phy, get_pan_id,
get_short_addr, and get_dsn.

Note that the places where this patch changes the initialization
of "ret" should not affect the rest of the code since "ret" was
always set (again) before returning its value.
