Subject: [PATCH 2/3] batman-adv: check for more types of invalid IP addresses in DAT

From: Matthias Schiffer <mschiffer@...verse-factory.net>

There are more types of IP addresses that may appear in ARP packets that we
don't want to process. While some of these should never appear in sane ARP
packets, a 0.0.0.0 source is used for duplicate address detection and thus seen
quite often.
