This patch changes the spinlock to mutex for the available fakelb phy
list. When holding the spinlock the ieee802154_unregister_hw is called
which holding the rtnl_mutex, in that case we get a "BUG: sleeping function
called from invalid context" error. We simple change the spinlock to
mutex which allows to hold the rtnl lock there.

For my RIOT-OS in userspace experiments I need to create a fakelb
monitor interface. The fakelb doesn't filter anything on L2 and is a
purely raw interface. Because nl802154 checks on promiscuous mode which
need to supported by creating monitors this patch adds some no-op
promiscuous mode setting and the promiscuous flag.

This patch introduce a fakelb ifup phys list, which stores all
registered phys which are in an operated mode. This will reduce the
iterations of non-operated phys while transmit frames. There exists two
locks now, one rwlock for the operated interfaces and the spinlock for
protecting the list for all registered virtual phys.

Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just
removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by
the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while.

The IEEE 802.15.4 standard represents a networking protocol. I don't
exactly know why drivers for this protocol are stored into the root
'driver' folder, but better will be to store them with other
networking stuff. Currently there are only 3 drivers available for
IEEE 802.15.4 stack, so lets do it now with the smallest overhead.
