Subject: [PATCH 3/4] batman-adv: Fix double neigh_node_put in batadv_v_ogm_route_update

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@...fation.org>

The router is put down twice when it was non-NULL and either orig_ifinfo is
NULL afterwards or batman-adv receives a packet with the same sequence
number. This will end up in a use-after-free when the batadv_neigh_node is
removed because the reference counter ended up too early at 0.
