Subject: [51/53] batman-adv: add sanity check when removing global tts

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

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

From: Simon Wunderlich <simon.wunderlich@...03.tu-chemnitz.de>

commit 6e8014947d6469df1566e9e253805557c5c0e4e0 upstream.

After removing the batman-adv module, the hash may be already gone
when tt_global_del_orig() tries to clean the hash. This patch adds
a sanity check to avoid this.
