Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: recompute mac_len at the beginning of the rx path

It is possible that the mac_len is not properly exported because of strange device configuration (this behaviour has been observed when using batman-adv on top of a vlan interface). Therefore it is needed to explicitly recompute it at the very beginning of the rx path

Instead of merging this patch I think that the best approach would be to fix the problem in VLAN code in the kernel. I'll try to send a patch to netdev.
