Subject: [PATCH net] Bug fix for batman-adv 2012-07-06

here I have a fix intended for net/linux-3.5.

The bug, discovered by Guido Iribarren and fixed by Simon Wunderlich, is caused
by the wrong interaction between the Bridge Loop Avoidance and the Gateway
feature of batman-adv.

Let me know if there are problems.

Thank you,
	Antonio
