The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit eb6915e2eb254fd83dc4472e22ebd6c54bf8ba47 Author: Linus Lüssing linus.luessing@c0d3.blue Date: Sun Aug 7 12:34:18 2016 +0200
batman-adv: Remove unused skb_reset_mac_header()
During broadcast queueing, the skb_reset_mac_header() sets the skb to a place invalid for a MAC header, pointing right into the batman-adv broadcast packet. Luckily, no one seems to actually use eth_hdr(skb) afterwards until batadv_send_skb_packet() resets the header to a valid position again.
Therefore removing this unnecessary, weird skb_reset_mac_header() call.
