Subject: [ 48/48] batman-adv: only drop packets of known wifi clients

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@...oo.de>

commit 5870adc68fc39d81089f1e80efdf64b97e5c37a1 upstream.

bug introduced with 59b699cdee039d75915c354da06937102d1f9a84

If the source or destination mac address of an ethernet packet
could not be found in the translation table the packet was
dropped if AP isolation was turned on. This behavior would
make it impossible to send broadcast packets over the mesh as
the broadcast address will never enter the translation table.
