    ipv6: addrconf: drop ieee802154 specific things · 5241c2d7
    Alexander Aring authored
    This patch removes ARPHRD_IEEE802154 from addrconf handling. In the
    earlier days of 802.15.4 6LoWPAN, the interface type was ARPHRD_IEEE802154
    which introduced several issues, because 802.15.4 interfaces used the
    same type.
    
    Since commit 965e613d
    
     ("ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix ARPHRD to
    ARPHRD_6LOWPAN") we use ARPHRD_6LOWPAN for 6LoWPAN interfaces. This
    patch will remove ARPHRD_IEEE802154 which is currently deadcode, because
    ARPHRD_IEEE802154 doesn't reach the minimum 1280 MTU of IPv6.
    
    Also we use 6LoWPAN EUI64 specific defines instead using link-layer
    constanst from 802.15.4 link-layer header.
