I have a driver for nRF24L01+ (not L0) I'm planing to submit it to main line but before that I was trying to make it a network device. My dificult was to make it fit in the ethernet world since it does not have anything in common to a network card. This one can be found here: https://bitbucket.org/danielhilst/nrf24 the network try is here, but is not finished: https://bitbucket.org/danielhilst/nrf24l01p 2016-09-21 7:08 GMT-03:00 Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>:

Those are wireless networking drivers.
Is there a framework for them or all will come under Wireless device drivers or network device drivers?What is the appropriate mailing list for the same?
linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org
Few example of such devices are -
Sub-1 GHz CC1120-CC1190 - From Texas Instruments
nRF905 - From Nordic Semiconductor
nRF9E5 - From Nordic Semiconductor
nRF24L01 - From Texas Instruments
Si4455 - From Silicon Labs OL23xx - From Nxp.
Those are almost always integrated directly into a wifi chipset, and not independant. If you have an independant device, the GNU Radio project might be a good thing to look into.
good luck!
