Okay, I see also you use a builtin CONFIG_IEEE802154_FAKELB, this module
generates two virtual phys which can "transmit <-> receive" some data
between them - if the page/channel setting are the same. This module
will register two phys by default.

It's just a note, that you might have 3 phys registered.
