When comparing a network ordered value with a constant, it
is better to convert the constant at compile time by means
of htons() instead of converting the value at runtime using
ntohs().

This refactoring may slightly improve the code performance.

Moreover substitute __constant_htons() with htons() since
the latter increase readability and it is smart enough to be

To be able to decode a network coded packet, a node must already know

Before adding forward-skbs to the coding buffer, the buffer is searched

network coded and transmitted right away. If not, the forward-skb is
added to the buffer.

Network coded packets are transmitted with information about the two
receivers and the two coded packets. The first receiver is given by the
MAC header, while the second is given in the payload/bat-header. The
second receiver uses promiscuous mode to receive the packet and check
the second destination.

Network coding exploits the 802.11 shared medium to allow multiple
packets to be sent in a single transmission. In brief, a relay can XOR
two packets, and send the coded packet to two destinations. The
receivers can decode one of the original packets by XOR'ing the coded
packet with the other original packet. This will lead to increased
throughput in topologies where two packets cross one relay.

In a simple topology with three nodes, it takes four transmissions
without network coding to get one packet from Node A to Node B and one
from Node B to Node A:

 1.  Node A  ---- p1 --->  Node R                Node B
 2.  Node A                Node R  <--- p2 ----  Node B
 3.  Node A  <--- p2 ----  Node R                Node B
 4.  Node A                Node R  ---- p1 --->  Node B

With network coding, the relay only needs one transmission, which saves
us one slot of valuable airtime:

 1.  Node A  ---- p1 --->  Node R                Node B
 2.  Node A                Node R  <--- p2 ----  Node B
 3.  Node A  <- p1 x p2 -  Node R  - p1 x p2 ->  Node B

The same principle holds for a topology including five nodes. Here the
packets from Node A and Node B are overheard by Node C and Node D,
respectively. This allows Node R to send a network coded packet to save
one transmission:

   Node A                  Node B

    |     \              /    |
    |      p1          p2     |
    |       \          /      |
    p1       > Node R <       p2
    |                         |
    |         /      \        |
    |    p1 x p2    p1 x p2   |
    v       /          \      v
           /            \
   Node C <              > Node D

More information is available on the open-mesh.org wiki[1].

This patch adds the initial code to support network coding in
batman-adv. It sets up a worker thread to do house keeping and adds a
sysfs file to enable/disable network coding. The feature is disabled by
default, as it requires a wifi-driver with working promiscuous mode, and
also because it adds a small delay at each hop.

tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.

With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

Transmissions over batman-adv devices always start another nested transmission
over devices attached to the batman-adv interface. These devices usually use
the ethernet lockdep class for the tx_queue lock which is also set by default
for all batman-adv devices. Lockdep will detect a nested locking attempt of two
locks with the same class and warn about a possible deadlock.

This is the default and expected behavior and should not alarm the locking
correctness prove mechanism. Therefore, the locks for all netdevice specific tx
queues get a special batman-adv lock class to avoid a false positive for each
transmission.
