Subject: pull request [net]: batman-adv 2013-12-19

Hello David,

this is a pull request intended for net.

Patch 1 is fixing a bug that is present in the batman-adv code since a while.
The bug prevents a batman-adv encapsulated packet from being correctly
processed by "Netfilter Bridge" twice. In particular a packet that
first enters a bridge with the batman-adv header and then enters another bridge
after the header has been removed is improperly processed. The problem is due to
the skb->nf_bridge member not being cleaned when the batman-adv header is
removed.
This patch takes care of properly releasing the nf_bridge field at the right
time (like all the other tunneling protocol do).

** Please, enqueue this patch for stable.


Patches from 2 to 6 take care of reshaping the packet layout a little bit to
make sure that all the structures we use for sending messages have size multiple
of 4 (or 2 when pack(2) is used).
This solves the problem raised by Russel King about the static checks failure
when compiling the module on the ARM architecture.



Please pull or let me know of any problem.


Thank you,
	Antonio

  batman-adv: fix alignment for batadv_tvlv_tt_change (2013-12-19 00:27:24 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Included changes:

- release skb->nf_bridge when removing the batman-adv header
  from an incoming packet. This prevents netfilter bridge
  from being fooled when the same packet enters a bridge
  twice (or more): the first time within the batman-adv
  header and the second time without.

- adjust the packet layout to prevent any architecture from
  adding padding bytes. All the structs sent over the wire
  now have size multiple of 4bytes (unless pack(2) is used).
