    ieee802154: add netlink interfaces for llsec · 3e9c156e
    Phoebe Buckheister authored
    This patch adds user-visible interfaces for the llsec infrastructure.
    For the added methods, the only major difference between all add/remove
    implementation lies in how the specific object is parsed, and for dump
    requests, how objects are written into netlink messages.
    
    To save on boilerplate code, table dumps are routed through a helper
    function that handles netlink dump state, leaving the actual dumping
    code to care only about iterating over the table to be dumped and
    filling netlink messages. For add/remove methods, the boilerplate
    required to work is not quite as large, but still enough to also move
    into a local helper.
