The internal handling of VLAN IDs in batman-adv is only specified for following encodings:
* VLAN is used - bit 15 is 1 - bit 11 - bit 0 is the VLAN ID (0-4095) - remaining bits are 0 * No VLAN is used - bit 15 is 0 - remaining bits are 0
batman-adv was only preparing new translation table entries (based on its soft interface information) using this encoding format. But the receive path was never checking if entries in the roam or TT TVLVs were also following this encoding.
It was therefore possible to create more than the expected maximum of 4096 + 1 entries in the originator VLAN list. Simply by setting the "remaining bits" to "random" values in corresponding TVLV.
