batman-adv tries to prevent the user from placing a batX soft interface into another batman mesh as a hard interface. It does this by walking up the devices list of parents and ensures they are all none batX interfaces. iflink can point to an interface in a different namespace, so also retrieve the parents name space when finding the parent and use it when doing the comparison.
