Subject: pull request [net]: batman-adv 20160430

Hello David,

this is another pull request intended for net.

I know that I sent another batch a few days ago, but after having gone
through my queue I thought that merging these last 4 patches would still
be worth it (there won't be any other pull request for linux-4.6 :)).

The description of the changes follows below.

Please pull or let me know of any issue!
Thanks a lot,
	Antonio

  batman-adv: Fix reference counting of hardif_neigh_node object for neigh_node (2016-04-29 19:46:11 +0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
In this small batch of patches you have:
- a fix for our Distributed ARP Table that makes sure that the input
  provided to the hash function during a query is the same as the one
  provided during an insert (so to prevent false negatives), by Antonio
  Quartulli
- a fix for our new protocol implementation B.A.T.M.A.N. V that ensures
  that a hard interface is properly re-activated when it is brought down
  and then up again, by Antonio Quartulli
- two fixes respectively to the reference counting of the tt_local_entry
  and neigh_node objects, by Sven Eckelmann. Such bug is rather severe
  as it would prevent the netdev objects references by batman-adv from
  being released after shutdown.
