So this means if somebody in the driver sets iftype COORD is supported
but then IEEE802154_HW_PROMISCUOUS is not supported it will not
support COORD?

Why is IEEE802154_HW_PROMISCUOUS required for COORD iftype? I thought
IEEE802154_HW_PROMISCUOUS is required to do a scan?

I guess this will work but I would like to see no logic about if it's
not MONITOR it's NODE or COORD, because introducing others requires
updating those again... however I think it's fine. I would like to see
a different receive path for coord_rx() and node_rx(), but yea
currently I guess they are mostly the same... in future I think they
are required as PACKTE_HOST, etc. will be changed regarding pan
coordinator or just coordinator (so far I understood).

If we do the clone above this kfree_skb() should be move to
ieee802154_rx() right after __ieee802154_rx_handle_packet(). This
patch also changes that we deliver one skb to multiple interfaces if
there are more than one and I was not aware that we currently do that.
