Vladimir Oltean 3c9cfb5269 net: update NXP copyright text
NXP Legal insists that the following are not fine:

- Saying "NXP Semiconductors" instead of "NXP", since the company's
  registered name is "NXP"

- Putting a "(c)" sign in the copyright string

- Putting a comma in the copyright string

The only accepted copyright string format is "Copyright <year-range> NXP".

This patch changes the copyright headers in the networking files that
were sent by me, or derived from code sent by me.

Vladimir Oltean 554aae3500 lib: Add support for generic packing operations
This provides an unified API for accessing register bit fields
regardless of memory layout. The basic unit of data for these API
functions is the u64. The process of transforming an u64 from native CPU
encoding into the peripheral's encoding is called 'pack', and
transforming it from peripheral to native CPU encoding is 'unpack'.
