Subject: [PATCH 11/17] batman-adv: Consume skb in batadv_frag_send_packet

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

Sending functions in Linux consume the supplied skbuff. Doing the same in
batadv_frag_send_packet avoids the hack of returning -1 (-EPERM) to signal
the caller that he is responsible for cleaning up the skb.
