Subject: [PATCH bluetooth-next v3] ieee802154: fix netns settings

6LoWPAN currently doesn't supports x-netns and works only in init_net.

With this patch, we ensure that:
 - the wpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
 - the 6lowpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
 - the wpan interface is in the same netns than the 6lowpan interface;
 - the 6lowpan interface is in init_net.

Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@...nd.com>
Acked-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@...il.com>

Note: only compile tested.

v3: rebase on head of bluetooth-next
    add the Acked-by line

v2: update patch title
    rebase the patch on bluetooth-next
    update flag features in cfg802154_netdev_notifier_call
