The last localtalk driver is gone now, and ppp support was never fully
merged, but the code to support them for phase1 networking still calls
the deprecated .ndo_do_ioctl() helper.

In order to better isolate the localtalk and ppp portions of appletalk,
guard all of the corresponding code with CONFIG_DEV_APPLETALK checks,
including a preprocessor conditional that guards the internal ioctl calls.

This is currently all dead code and will now be left out of the
module since this Kconfig symbol is always undefined, but there are
plans to add a new driver for localtalk again in the future. When
that happens, the logic can be cleaned up to work properly without
the need for the ioctl.

Hi Arnd, the WiFi changes are now in net, could you rebase & repost?
