I'll pull this, but I really want you to resolve atomic_dec_not_zero()
properly.

It does not belong in any batman-adv header file.

Instead it belongs in all of arch/${ARCH}/include/asm/atomic.h and
include/asm-generic/atomic.h

Please submit a patch which puts it in the proper place to linux-kernel

Don't worry about build problems resulting from this, I'll make sure
to deal with it properly when the change shows up in Linus's tree.

Thanks.
