Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCHv3 1/3] batman-adv: add wrapper function to throw uevent in userspace

Using throw_uevent() is now possible to trigger uevent signal that can be recognised in userspace. Uevents will be triggered through the /devices/virtual/net/{MESH_IFACE} kobject.

A triggered uevent has three properties:

• type: the event class. Who generates the event (only 'gw' is currently defined). Corresponds to the BATTYPE uevent variable.
• action: the associated action with the event ('add'/'change'/'del' are currently defined). Corresponds to the BAACTION uevent variable.
• data: any useful data for the userspace. Corresponds to the BATDATA uevent variable.

Applied in revision d2586d6.
