In different situations it is possible that the DHCP server
or client uses broadcast Ethernet frames to send messages
to each other. The GW component in batman-adv takes care of
using bat-unicast packets to bring broadcast DHCP
Discover/Requests to the "best" server.

On the way back the DHCP server usually sends unicasts,
but upon client request it may decide to use broadcasts as
well.

This patch improves the GW component so that it now snoops
and sends as unicast all the DHCP packets, no matter if they
were generated by a DHCP server or client.

The function batadv_gw_deselect() is actually not deselecting
anything. It is just informing the GW code to perform a
re-election procedure when possible.
The current gateway is not being touched at all and therefore
the name of this function is rather misleading.

Rename it to batadv_gw_reselect() to batadv_gw_reselect()
to make its behaviour easier to grasp.

As suggested by checkpatch, remove all the references to the
FSF address since the kernel already has one reference in
its documentation.

In this way it is easier to update it in case of future
changes.

Prior to this patch batman-adv read the advertised uplink bandwidth
from userspace and compressed this information into a single byte
called "gateway class".
Now the download & upload bandwidth information is sent as-is. No
userspace change is necessary since the sysfs API always allowed
to specify a bandwidth.

Whenever the GW client mode is deselected, a DEL event has
to be sent in order to tell userspace that the current
gateway has been lost. Send the uevent on state change only
if a gateway was currently selected.

There are several functions which might reallocate skb data. Currently
some places keep reusing their old ethhdr pointer regardless of whether
they became invalid after such a reallocation or not. This potentially
leads to kernel paging errors.

This patch fixes these by refetching the ethdr pointer after the
potential reallocations.

batman-adv doesn't follow the style for multiline comments that David S. Miller
prefers. All comments should be reformatted to follow this consistent style to
make the code slightly more readable.

batman-adv can be compiled as part of the kernel instead of an module. In that
case the linker will see all non-static symbols of batman-adv and all other
non-static symbols of the kernel. This could lead to symbol collisions. A
prefix for the batman-adv symbols that defines their private namespace avoids
such a problem.
