Subject: [PATCH 3.16 052/254] batman-adv: Fix lock for ogm cnt access in
 batadv_iv_ogm_calc_tq

3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit 5ba7dcfe77037b67016263ea597a8b431692ecab upstream.

The originator node object orig_neigh_node is used to when accessing the
bcast_own(_sum) and real_packet_count information. The access to them has
to be protected with the spinlock in orig_neigh_node.

But the function uses the lock in orig_node instead. This is incorrect
because they could be two different originator node objects.

Fixes: 0ede9f41b217 ("batman-adv: protect bit operations to count OGMs with spinlock")
