add_bcast_packet_to_list increases the refcount for if_incoming but the
reference count is never decreased. The reference count must be
increased for all kinds of forwarded packets which have the primary
interface stored and forw_packet_free must decrease them. Also
purge_outstanding_packets has to invoke forw_packet_free when a work
item was really cancelled.
This regression was introduced in
32ae9b221e.

The hard_if_event is called by the notifier with rtnl_lock and tries to
remove sysfs entries when a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event is received. This
will automatically take the s_active lock.
The s_active lock is also used when a new interface is added to a meshif
through sysfs. In that situation we cannot wait for the rntl_lock before
creating the actual batman-adv interface to prevent a deadlock. It is
still possible to try to get the rtnl_lock and immediately abort the
current operation when the trylock call failed.

hardif_list_lock is unneccessary because we already ensure that no
multiple admin operations can take place through rtnl_lock.
hardif_list_lock only adds additional overhead and complexity.
Critical functions now check whether they are called with rtnl_lock
using ASSERT_RTNL.
It indirectly fixes the problem that orig_hash_del_if() expects that
only one interface is deleted from hardif_list at a time, but
hardif_remove_interfaces() removes all at once and then calls
orig_hash_del_if().

The bridge loop detection for batman-adv allows the bat0 interface
to be bridged into an ethernet segment which other batman-adv nodes
are connected to. In order to also allow multiple VLANs on top of
the bat0 interface to be bridged into the ethernet segment this

- gw_node_update() doesn't add a new gw_node in case of empty curr_gw.

Like other virtual interfaces, e.g. br0, we don't need a transmit
queue. Packets should only be queued on real interfaces which are
underneath. In practice this patch makes little difference since the
virtual interfaces can accept packets as fast as they come, but the
patch will avoid bufferbloat questions to the mailling lists in the
future.

When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the
softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer
allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and
the buffer printed - which has the following two issues:
For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring
the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer.
Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid
of more than 2 digits.
The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq
directly during the rcu_read_lock().

Batman-adv could receive several payload broadcasts at the same time
that would trigger access to the broadcast seqno sliding window to
determine whether this is a new broadcast or not. If these incoming
broadcasts are accessing the sliding window simultaneously it could
be left in an inconsistent state. Therefore it is necessary to make
sure this access is atomic.
