Each VLAN can now have its own set of attributes which are
exported through a new subfolder in the sysfs tree.
Each VLAN created on top of a soft_iface will have its own
subfolder.

The subfolder is named "vlan%VID" and it is created inside
the "mesh" sysfs folder belonging to batman-adv.

Attributes corresponding to the untagged LAN are stored in
the root sysfs folder as before.

This patch also creates all the needed macros and data
structures to easily handle new VLAN spacific attributes.

Since batman-adv is now fully VLAN-aware, a proper framework
able to handle per-vlan-interface attributes is needed.

Those attributes will affect the associated VLAN interface
only, rather than the real soft_iface (which would result
in every vlan interface having the same attribute
configuration).

To make the code simpler and easier to extend, attributes
associated to the standalone soft_iface are now treated
like belonging to yet another vlan having a special vid.
This vid is different from the others because it is made up
by all zeros and the VLAN_HAS_TAG bit is not set.

The sysfs configuration interface of batman-adv to add/remove soft-interfaces
is not deadlock free and doesn't follow the currently common way to create new
virtual interfaces.

An additional interface though rtnl_link is introduced which provides easy device
creation/deletion with tools like "ip":

$ ip link add dev bat0 type batadv
$ ip link del dev bat0

In order to understand  where a broadcast packet is coming from and use
this information to detect not yet announced clients, this patch modifies the
interface_rx() function by passing a new argument: the orig node
corresponding to the node that originated the received packet (if known).
This new argument if not NULL for broadcast packets only (other packets does not
have source field).

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.

When trying to associate a net_device with another net_device which
already exists, batman-adv assumes that this interface is a fully
initialized batman mesh interface without checking it. The behaviour
when accessing data behind netdev_priv of a random net_device is
undefined and potentially dangerous.

By connecting multiple batman-adv mesh nodes to the same ethernet
segment a loop can be created when the soft-interface is bridged
into that ethernet segment. A simple visualization of the loop
involving the most common case - a LAN as ethernet segment:

node1  <-- LAN  -->  node2
   |                   |
 wifi  <-- mesh -->  wifi

Packets from the LAN (e.g. ARP broadcasts) will circle forever from
node1 or node2 over the mesh back into the LAN.

This patch adds the functionality to detect other batman-adv nodes
connected to the LAN and select a 'gateway' to talk to the
non-batman-adv devices on this LAN. All traffic from and to the mesh
will be handled by this gateway to avoid the loop. OGMs received via
the soft-interface are interpreted as 'port announcements' to locate
potential batman-adv nodes. The patch can also deal with vlans on
top of batX and offers a list of LAN neighbors via debugfs.

This patch replaces the static bat0 interface with a dynamic/abstracted
approach. It is now possible to create multiple batX interfaces by
assigning hard interfaces to them. Each batX interface acts as an
independent mesh network. A soft interface is removed once no hard
interface references it any longer.

my_skb_push provided an easy way to allocate enough headroom in
situation were we don't have enough space left and move the data pointer
to the new position, but we didn't checked wether we are allowed to
write to the new pushed header. This is for example a problem when the
skb was cloned and thus doesn't have a private data part.

my_skb_head_push now replaces my_skb_push by using skb_cow_head to
provide only a large enough, writable header without testing for the
rest of the (maybe shared) data. It will also move the data pointer
using skb_push when skb_cow_head doesn't fail.

This should give us enough flexibility in situation were skbs will be
queued by underlying layers and still doesn't unnecessarily copy the
data in situations when the skb was consumed right away during
dev_queue_xmit.

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.
