This patch moves the open count handling while doing open of a lowpan
interface. We need the packet handler register at first when one lowpan
interface is up.
The code itself looks fine, but I have trouble to gte the why from your
commit message. Why is this change needed?

It's a slightly improvement. There exists a small case when ALL lowpan
interfaces are down and the ieee802154_6lowpan module still receives
frames. We don't need to receive frames when all lowpan interfaces are
down. This will end always in the upcomming (!netif_running(ldev))
condition.

Does it sounds useful?

Yes, having this explanation in the commit message would be good.

Why is this a SOB?

Because it was late and I screwed up. :( Sorry.
