44c4349a2a batman-adv: Replace version info instead of appending them
The version number of modules build outside of the tree can get revision
numbers added. This is useful to give hints about the revision of a
distribution package and the used patchset. The prepended source number or
branch name doesn't add any additional information which would help to identify
problems and can therefore be omitted.

43676ab590 batman-adv: improved gateway tq-based selection
If a client issues a DHCPREQUEST for renewal, the packet is dropped
if the old destination (the old gateway for the client) TQ is smaller
than the current best gateway TQ less GW_THRESHOLD

19595e054d batman-adv: throw uevent in userspace on gateway add/change/del event
In case of new default gw, changing the default gw or deleting the default gw a
uevent is triggered with type=gw, action=add/change/del and
data={GW_ORIG_ADDRESS} (if any).

2265c14108 batman-adv: gateway election code refactoring
The gateway election mechanism has been a little revised. Now the
gw_election is trigered by an atomic_t flag (gw_reselect) which is set
to 1 in case of election needed, avoding to set curr_gw to NULL.

6b9aadfa97 batman-adv: Don't return value in void function
gw_node_delete is defined with "void" as return type, but still tries to
return a value. The called function gw_node_delete is also return as
void and thus doesn't provide a value for us.

704509b8d4 batman-adv: Calculate sizeof using variable insead of types
Documentation/CodingStyle recommends to use the form

	p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);

to calculate the size of a struct and not the version where the struct
name is spelled out to prevent bugs when the type of p changes. This
also seems appropriate for manipulation of buffers when they are
directly associated with p.

71e4aa9c46 batman-adv: fix gw_node_update() and gw_election()
This is a regression from c4aac1ab9b

- gw_node_update() doesn't add a new gw_node in case of empty curr_gw.
This means that at the beginning no gw_node is added, leading to an
empty gateway list.

- gw_election() is terminating in case of curr_gw == NULL. It has to
terminate in case of curr_gw != NULL

7b36e8eef9 batman-adv: Correct rcu refcounting for orig_node
It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same
rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the
refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the
refcount to use the data. To avoid this race condition all refcount
operations have to be atomic.
