Matthias Schiffer 8772cc49e0 batman-adv: fix duplicate MAC address check
batadv_check_known_mac_addr() is both too lenient and too strict:

- It is called from batadv_hardif_add_interface(), which means that it
  checked interfaces that are not used for batman-adv at all. Move it
  to batadv_hardif_enable_interface(). Also, restrict it to hardifs of
  the same mesh interface; different mesh interfaces should not interact
  at all. The batadv_check_known_mac_addr() argument is changed from
  `struct net_device` to `struct batadv_hard_iface` to achieve this.
- The check only cares about hardifs in BATADV_IF_ACTIVE and
  BATADV_IF_TO_BE_ACTIVATED states, but interfaces in BATADV_IF_INACTIVE
  state should be checked as well, or the following steps will not
  result in a warning then they should:

  - Add two interfaces in down state with different MAC addresses to
    a mesh as hardifs
  - Change the MAC addresses so they conflict
  - Set interfaces to up state

  Now there will be two active hardifs with the same MAC address, but no
  warning. Fix by only ignoring hardifs in BATADV_IF_NOT_IN_USE state.

The RCU lock can be dropped, as we're holding RTNL anyways when the
function is called.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
