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.

With this patch the functions batadv_send_skb_unicast() and
batadv_send_skb_unicast_4addr() are further refined into
batadv_send_skb_via_tt(), batadv_send_skb_via_tt_4addr() and
batadv_send_skb_via_gw(). This way we avoid any "guessing" about where to send
a packet in the unicast forwarding methods and let the callers decide.

This is going to be useful for the upcoming multicast related patches in
particular.

Further, the return values were polished a little to use the more
appropriate NET_XMIT_* defines.

By adding batadv_send_skb_to_orig() in send.c, we can remove duplicate
code that looks up the next hop and then calls batadv_send_skb_packet().

Furthermore, this prepares the upcoming new implementation of
fragmentation, which requires the next hop to route packets.

Please note that this doesn't entirely remove the next-hop lookup in
routing.c and unicast.c, since it is used by the current fragmentation
code.

Also note that the next-hop info is removed from debug messages in
translation-table.c, since it is looked up elsewhere.

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.

The client announcement mechanism informs every mesh node in the network
of any connected non-mesh client, in order to find the path towards that
client from any given point in the mesh.

The old implementation was based on the simple idea of appending a data
buffer to each OGM containing all the client MAC addresses the node is
serving. All other nodes can populate their global translation tables
(table which links client MAC addresses to node addresses) using this
MAC address buffer and linking it to the node's address contained in the
OGM. A node that wants to contact a client has to lookup the node the
client is connected to and its address in the global translation table.

It is easy to understand that this implementation suffers from several
issues:
 - big overhead (each and every OGM contains the entire list of
   connected clients)
 - high latencies for client route updates due to long OGM trip time and
   OGM losses

The new implementation addresses these issues by appending client
changes (new client joined or a client left) to the OGM instead of
filling it with all the client addresses each time. In this way nodes
can modify their global tables by means of "updates", thus reducing the
overhead within the OGMs.

To keep the entire network in sync each node maintains a translation
table version number (ttvn) and a translation table checksum. These
values are spread with the OGM to allow all the network participants to
determine whether or not they need to update their translation table
information.

When a translation table lookup is performed in order to send a packet
to a client attached to another node, the destination's ttvn is added to
the payload packet. Forwarding nodes can compare the packet's ttvn with
their destination's ttvn (this node could have a fresher information
than the source) and re-route the packet if necessary. This greatly
reduces the packet loss of clients roaming from one AP to the next.

The vis information structure is used in a way that it can be transfered
directly as packet. It still had to be copied into a skb because of an
extra buffer used for the actual preparation of the data. This is
unnecessary and can be replaced by a simple clone instead of an full
copy before each send.

This makes also the send_raw_packet function obsolete.

This patch limits the queue lengths of batman and broadcast packets. BATMAN
packets are held back for aggregation and jittered to avoid interferences.
Broadcast packets are stored to be sent out multiple times to increase
the probability to be received by other nodes in lossy environments.

Especially in extreme cases like broadcast storms, the queues have been seen
to run full, eating up all the memory and triggering the infamous OOM killer.
With the queue length limits introduced in this patch, this problem is
avoided.

Each queue is limited to 256 entries for now, resulting in 1 MB of maximum
space available in total for typical setups (assuming one packet including
overhead does not require more than 2000 byte). This should also be reasonable
for smaller routers, otherwise the defines can be tweaked later.

This third version of the patch does not increase the local broadcast
sequence number when the queue is already full.

Instead of having a single /proc file "interfaces" in which you have
to echo the wanted interface batman-adv will create a subfolder in each
suitable /sys/class/net folder. This subfolder contains files for the
interface specific settings. For example, mesh_iface to add/remove an
interface from a virtual mesh network (at the moment only bat0 is
supported).

Example:
echo bat0 > /sys/class/net/eth0/batman-adv/mesh_iface

to deactivate:
echo none > /sys/class/net/eth0/batman-adv/mesh_iface

Interfaces which are not compatible with batman-adv won't contain the
batman-adv folder, therefore can't be activated. Not supported are:
loopback, non-ethernet, non-ARP and virtual mesh network interfaces

This patch removes the (ugly and racy) packet receiving thread and the
kernel socket usage. Instead, packets are received directly by registering
the ethernet type and handling skbs instead of self-allocated buffers.

Some consequences and comments:

 * we don't copy the payload data when forwarding/sending/receiving data
   anymore. This should boost performance.
 * packets from/to different interfaces can be (theoretically) processed
   simultaneously. Only the big originator hash lock might be in the way.
 * no more polling or sleeping/wakeup/scheduling issues when receiving
   packets
 * this might introduce new race conditions.
 * aggregation and vis code still use packet buffers and are not (yet)
   converted.
 * all spinlocks were converted to irqsave/restore versions to solve
   some lifelock issues when preempted. This might be overkill, some
   of these locks might be reverted later.
 * skb copies are only done if neccesary to avoid overhead

performance differences:

 * we made some "benchmarks" with intel laptops.
 * bandwidth on Gigabit Ethernet increased from ~500 MBit/s to ~920 MBit/s
 * ping latency decresed from ~2ms to ~0.2 ms

I did some tests on my 9 node qemu environment and could confirm that
usual sending/receiving, forwarding, vis, batctl ping etc works.
