Constify struct sysfs_ops.
This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Refactor the wlp_get_<attribute>() macros to call a common function.
This save over 4k of space and remove a spurious uninitialized variable
warning with some versions of gcc.

Ethernet multicast addresses are supported by mapping them to
broadcast WLP frames. These are frequently used in IPv6 traffic.

Instead of the home-grown d_fnstart(), d_fnend() and d_printf() macros,
use dev_dbg() or remove the message entirely.

The UWB radio manager coordinates the use of the radio between the
PALs that may be using it. PALs request use of the radio with
uwb_radio_start() and the radio manager will start beaconing if its
not already doing so. When the last PAL has called uwb_radio_stop()
beaconing will be stopped.
In the future, the radio manager will have a more sophisticated channel
selection algorithm, probably following the Channel Selection Policy
from the WiMedia Alliance when it is finalized. For now, channel 9
(BG1, TFC1) is selected.
The user may override the channel selected by the radio manager and may
force the radio to stop beaconing.
The WUSB Host Controller PAL makes use of this and there are two new
debug PAL commands that can be used for testing.

ECMA-368 requires that IEs in a beacon must be sorted by element ID. Most
hardware uses the ordering in the Set IE URC command so get the ordering
right on the host.
Also refactor the IE management code:
- use uwb_ie_next() instead of uwb_ie_for_each().
- remove unnecessary functions.
- API is now only uwb_rc_ie_add() and uwb_rc_ie_rm().

- everything else
messages:
- WLP message construction/decode
wss:
- Wireless Service Set support
build-system:
- Kconfig and Kbuild files
