Subject: [PATCH 04/10] batman-adv: Make NC capability changes atomic

From: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@...3.blue>

Bitwise OR/AND assignments in C aren't guaranteed to be atomic. One
OGM handler might undo the set/clear of a specific bit from another
handler run in between.

Fix this by using the atomic set_bit()/clear_bit()/test_bit() functions.

Fixes: 3f4841ffb336 ("batman-adv: tvlv - add network coding container")
