62004a28a6 net/d_buf: remove d_buf reference from l3/l4
l3/l4 stack will decouple the reference of d_buf gradually, Only legacy
devices still retain d_buf support, new net devices will use d_iob

34d2cde8a8 net/l2/l3/l4: add support of iob offload
1. Add new config CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE to isolation of l2 stack,
   which will benefit l3(IP) layer for multi-MAC(l2) implementation,
   especially in some NICs such as celluler net driver.

new configuration options: CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE

CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE will reserved l2 buffer header size of
network buffer to isolate the L2/L3 (MAC/IP) data on network layer,
which will be beneficial to L3 network layer protocol transparent
transmission and forwarding

------------------------------------------------------------
Layout of frist iob entry:

        iob_data (aligned by CONFIG_IOB_ALIGNMENT)
            |
            |                  io_offset(CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE)
            |                                |
            -------------------------------------------------
      iob   |            Reserved            |    io_len    |

            |                 io_offset(CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE)
            |                                |

 ipforward  |            Reserved            |    io_len    |
            -------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Support iob offload to l2 driver to avoid unnecessary memory copy

Support send/receive iob vectors directly between the NICs and l3/l4
stack to avoid unnecessary memory copies, especially on hardware that
supports Scatter/gather, which can greatly improve performance.

new interface to support iob offload:

  ------------------------------------------
  |    IOB version     |     original      |
  |----------------------------------------|
  |  devif_iob_poll()  |   devif_poll()    |
  |       ...          |       ...         |
  ------------------------------------------

ebb5fb7480 net/neighbor/neighbor_ethernet_out.c: fix build error without ICMPv6
Patch fixes following build error when
CONFIG_NET_IPv6 && !CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6 && CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET:

  nuttx/staging/libnet.a(neighbor_ethernet_out.o): In function `neighbor_ethernet_out':
  nuttx/net/neighbor/neighbor_ethernet_out.c:188: undefined reference to `icmpv6_solicit'

IPv6 without ICMPv6 is not very useful, but at least this patch
allows neighbor_ethernet_out() to be used with a packet socket or
with multicast address (point-to-point IPv6 links) even in that case.

    net/neighbor/neighbor_snapshot.c:  Add neighbor_snapshot() that will eventually be used by the Netlink sockets.  Also fixed naming violation 'struct neighbor_entry' -> 'struct neighbor_entry_s'.
