The sysfs configuration interface of batman-adv to add/remove soft-interfaces is not deadlock free and doesn't follow the currently common way to create new virtual interfaces.

An additional interface though rtnl_link is introduced which provides easy device creation/deletion with tools like "ip":

$ ip link add dev bat0 type batadv $ ip link del dev bat0
