fs/userfs:  Fix return value from dup method.  In order to return a pointer, the parameter must be a pointer to a pointer.

This comment converts the underlying IPC used by the UserFS from Unix domain local sockets to UDP LocalHost loopback sockets.  The problem with the local sockets is that they do require operations on the top level psuedo-file system inode tree.  That tree must be locked during certain traversals such as enumerate mountpoints or enumerating directory entries.

This conversion is unfortunate in the sense that Unix local domain sockets are relatively lightweight.  LocalHost UDP sockets are much heavier weight since they rely on the full UDP stack.  If anyone is up for a complete redesign, then using some shared memory and a POSIX message queue would be lightweight again.

This commit also fixes several bugs that were not testable before the inode tree deadlock.  I cannot say that the logic is 100% stable but it does not have basic functionality.

Squashed commit of the following:

    fs/userfs:  Order locking so that access to the shared I/O buffer is also locked.
    fs/userfs:  Converts to use LocalHost UDP loopback for IPC.

mac802154: Fixes a warning for unused variable and returns -1 from macnet_notify() if event is not used.

Approved-by: Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>

wireless/ieee802154:  Fix a warning found in build testing.  Mouse input:  Cosmetic changes while reviewing logic.

Another fix from recent PR:  mac802154_primitive_free() does not exist.  Perhaps ieee802154_primitive_free() is what was intended?

drivers/mtd/filemtd.c: Don't use file descriptors... Use the internal file system interfaces so that the loop device can be shared across threads.

drivers/loop: Don't use file descriptors... Use the internal file system interfaces so that the loop device can be shared across threads.

According to the specification, the close function must wait until all data
has been written before it closes the file (except O_NONBLOCK is set). The
maximum waiting time for this is not specified.

To be able to edit the file list of the process, the close function has to lock
the file list semaphore. After that the close function of the serial driver is
called.

Waiting for the complete transmission of all data is done in the serial driver.
This causes the semaphore to remain locked until all data has been sent.
However, no other thread of the process can edit the file list for that time
(open, close, dup2, etc.). This is not optimal in a multithreaded environment.
Therefore, we have to keep the waiting time within the driver as short as possible.

fs/userfs:  There are some deadlock issues that make the UserFS un-usable at the current time.  Added to the TODO list; also feature is now marked EXPERIMENTAL.

This commit modifies the Unix domain local socket design.  Local sockets are built on top of pipes.  The Local socket implementation maintained file descriptors to interrupt with the pipes.  File descriptors have the bad property that they are valid only while running on the thread within the task that created the local socket.

As a policy, all internal OS implementations must use "detached" files which are valid in any context and do not depend on the validity of a file descriptor at any point in time.  This commit converts the usage of file descriptors to detached files throughout the local socket implementation.

Squashed commit of the following:

    net/local: Finish change to eliminate use of file descriptors.
    net/local:  A little more of the conversion.
    net/local: Beginning of chnages to eliminate use of file descriptors in the local socket implementeation. poll() will be a problem.

ieee802154: Simplifies notify() and rxframe() calls to a single notify() call. dataind's and all other "notifs" are now "primitives" which aligns with standard terminology

* mac802154: Adds promiscous mode logic to bypass parsing of incoming frames. MAC char device also checks for promiscous mode and passes whole frames including header and FCS to the application if promiscous mode is enabled.

* sixlowpan: Fixes logic to correctly check if packet is large enough to include header.  This would cause packets to be considered too small when they are sufficiently sized.

Update TODO for broken local socket feature; Add work around to UserFS for broken local socket feature.

 libc/userfs: Correct return value from dispatchers.  Should return zero on success, not the number of bytes sent.

drivers/wireless/ieee80211:  Fix typos and spelling errors as needed for Photon build.

Fixes a memory leak that is caused because the client message queue is not unlinked after the client disconnects from the NX server.

Fix GPIO operation of STMPE811 driver.

Fixed issues:
1. STMPE811_GPIO_DIR was defined for register name
   and later was redefined to be the pin direction mask
   for `stmpe811_gpioconfig`

   I decided to change register name to be STMPE811_GPIO_DIR_REG,
   and keep pin direction mask STMPE811_GPIO_DIR, so that any
   external code that already use this driver will be unchanged.

2. The STMPE811 register GPIO_DIR uses bit value 1 for output
   and 0 for input, but `stmpe811_gpioconfig` set the opposite.

3. The call to `stmpe811_gpiowrite` from inside of `stmpe811_gpioconfig`
   leaded to deadlock.

    fs/userfs:  This completes coding of the UserFS client and of the UserFS feature in general.  This feature is being merged to main now because I believe it is innocuous.  It is, however, untesed.  The next step will be to develop a test case to verify the feature.
    fs/userfs:  Completes the request logic for the UserFS client.  Still need the logic that receives the responses.
    fs/userfs:  Completes coding for most of the server side of the user filesystem logic.
    fs/userfs:  Big design changes, simplications. Use Unix domain local sockets instead of message queues.  Easier to transfer big data in local sockets than message queues.  Remove character drvier 'factory' it is not necessary.
    fs/userfs:  Minor reparitioning; volume private info does not need to be held on the OS client side.
    libc/userfs:  Add some of the server side logic.
    fs/userfs:  Add some UserFS initialization logic.
    fs/userfs:  Add frame work for the UserFS proxy.  Remove all references to a block driver.  There is no block dricer... what was I thinking?
    fs/userfs: Add some initialization of the character driver, 'factory' device.
    fs/userfs:  Rename from fusefs to userfs to that we don't stomp on someone else's cool name.
    Add a header file describing the fusefs interface.
