Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: Initialize lockdep class keys for hashes

Different hashes have the same class key key because they get initialised with the same one. For this reason lockdep can create false warning when they are used recursively.

Re-initialise the key for each hash after the invocation to hash_new() to avoid this problem.

I was thinking...instead of creating such "a free noise" in udev, we may want to add a configuration facility so that the user can choose which uevents to enable and which not..

If we don't do so batman-adv will start throwing uevents even if not needed.

Please, drop this patch. We need some more code here :-)
