mac802154: allocation of ieee802154 device

An interface to allocate and register ieee802154 compatible device.
The allocated device has the following representation in memory:

	+-----------------------+
	| struct wpan_phy       |
	+-----------------------+
	| struct mac802154_priv |
	+-----------------------+
	| driver's private data |
	+-----------------------+

Used by device drivers to register new instance in the stack.

+          This option enables the hardware independent IEEE 802.15.4
+          networking stack for SoftMAC devices (the ones implementing
+          only PHY level of IEEE 802.15.4 standard).
+
+          Note: this implementation is neither certified, nor feature
+          complete! Compatibility with other implementations hasn't
+          been tested yet!
+
+          If you plan to use HardMAC IEEE 802.15.4 devices, you can
+          say N here. Alternatievly you can say M to compile it as
+          module.
