Hello Jonas,
truth is we are currently somewhat in a transition phase. We want the new
netdev interface and have in place as soon as possible, but there are still
modules and applications that use the old transceiver interface. Moreover,
the cc2420 is older than the netdev API and was just adapted to it (to
avoid confusion: the adaption to netdev is not even merged, yet [1]). I
think a better (though in my eyes still not perfect, since it's also
serving the transceiver API) reference implementation is the new cc110x
driver by Fabian Nack. For IEEE 802.15.4 maybe the Xbee driver by Kévin
Roussel [2] is a better reference than the cc2420.
