Hi David,

this is a batch intended for net. Changes are quite small, therefore I
hope it is not a big deal to include them at this point of the release cycle.

In this patchset you can find the following fixes:

1) check skb size to avoid reading beyond its border when delivering
   payloads, by Sven Eckelmann
2) initialize last_seen time in neigh_node object to prevent cleanup
   routine from accidentally purge it, by Marek Lindner
3) release "recently added" slave interfaces upon virtual/batman
   interface shutdown, by Sven Eckelmann
4) properly decrease router object reference counter upon routing table
   update, by Sven Eckelmann
5) release queue slots when purging OGM packets of deactivating slave
   interface, by Linus Lüssing

Patch 2 and 3 have no "Fixes:" tag because the offending commits date
back to when batman-adv was not yet officially in the net tree.

Note that all these changes are fixing very old commits and therefore
it would be nice if you could queue them for *stable*.

Please pull or let me know of any issue!

Thanks a lot,
	Antonio
