The last localtalk driver is gone now, and ppp support was never fully

code paths.

Notably, this removes one of the two callers of the old .ndo_do_ioctl()
callback that was abused for getting device addresses and is now
only used in the ieee802154 subsystem, which still uses the same trick.

The include/uapi/linux/if_ltalk.h header might still be required
for building userspace programs, but I made sure that debian code
search and the netatalk upstream have no references it it, so it
should be fine to remove.
Looks like it depends on the ipddp driver removal.
Could you repost once that one is merged (~tomorrow)?
