The sysfs configuration interface of batman-adv to add/remove soft-interfaces
is not deadlock free and doesn't follow the currently common way to create new
virtual interfaces.
An additional interface though rtnl_link is introduced which provides easy device
creation/deletion with tools like "ip":
$ ip link add dev bat0 type batadv
$ ip link del dev bat0

In order to understand where a broadcast packet is coming from and use
this information to detect not yet announced clients, this patch modifies the
interface_rx() function by passing a new argument: the orig node
corresponding to the node that originated the received packet (if known).
This new argument if not NULL for broadcast packets only (other packets does not
have source field).

batman-adv doesn't follow the style for multiline comments that David S. Miller
prefers. All comments should be reformatted to follow this consistent style to
make the code slightly more readable.

batman-adv can be compiled as part of the kernel instead of an module. In that
case the linker will see all non-static symbols of batman-adv and all other
non-static symbols of the kernel. This could lead to symbol collisions. A
prefix for the batman-adv symbols that defines their private namespace avoids
such a problem.

The functionality is to be replaced by an improved implementation,
so first clean up.

interface_tx is not used outside of soft-interface.c and thus doesn't
need to be declared inside soft-interface.h

batman-adv uses pointers which are marked as const and should not
violate that type qualifier by passing it to functions which force a
cast to the non-const version.

When trying to associate a net_device with another net_device which
already exists, batman-adv assumes that this interface is a fully
initialized batman mesh interface without checking it. The behaviour
when accessing data behind netdev_priv of a random net_device is
undefined and potentially dangerous.

B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is a routing
protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The networks may be wired or
wireless. See http://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
tools.
