I tried to grab me one file and then doing all stuff which is in my
rework branch. First tx file then rx file, now with iface sending trivial
patches has ended here.

You are right cover-letters looks much ugly and patches contains too much changes
sometimes.

I want that all these changes are contain in the upcomming kernel release.
I will try to improve my cover-letter in the next series. For me wrtiting a
commit msg is more difficult than writing code and there will comming
much patches which will do many change.

The current code base for this branch is very bad and when we don't
doing anything here in this structual architecture then this branch will
die. For me it was already died when I cames mainline.

I can't simple send a patch which removes all 802.15.4 code and adding a
new implementation. We need to do this in small steps.
