Sven Eckelmann	8669a550c7	batman-adv: clean untagged VLAN on netdev registration failure ... When an mesh interface is registered, it creates an untagged struct batadv_meshif_vlan on top of it via the NETDEV_REGISTER notifier. But in this process, another receiver of this notification can veto the registration. The netdev registration will be aborted because of this veto. The register_netdevice() call will try to clean up the net_device using unregister_netdevice_queue() - which only uses the .priv_destructor to free private resources. In this situation, .dellink will not be called. The cleanup of the untagged batadv_meshif_vlan must thefore be done in the destructor to avoid a leak of this object.

Sven Eckelmann	629a2b18e8	batman-adv: remove includes for extern declarations ... It is not necessary to include the header for the struct definition for an "extern " declaration. It can simply be dropped from the headers to reduce the number of includes the preprocessor has to process. If needed, it can be added to the actual C source file.

Sven Eckelmann	9443335502	batman-adv: Use consistent name for mesh interface ... The way how the virtual interface is called inside the batman-adv source code is not consistent. The genl headers call it meshif and the rest of the code calls is (mostly) softif. The genl definitions cannot be touched because they are part of the UAPI. But the rest of the batman-adv code can be touched to have a consistent name again. The bulk of the renaming was done using sed -i -e 's/soft\(-\|\_\| \|\)i\([nf]\)/mesh\1i\2/g' \ -e 's/SOFT\(-\|\_\| \|\)I\([NF]\)/MESH\1I\2/g' and then it was adjusted slightly when proofreading the changes.
