I don't know what the exact circumstances are that trigger the log spam, but it seems this was broken forever (I could also reproduce the issue with our compat-14 legacy branch)... so please ask David to queue this up for stable :)
Yes, this is broken since earliest commits. The most relevant commit in batman-adv is:
Fixes: fe28a94c01e1 ("batman-adv: receive packets directly using skbs")
But I would propose to use following in the kernel tree:
Fixes: c6c8fea29769 ("net: Add batman-adv meshing protocol")
The 4.15 release will be soon(tm) and Simon is currently on vacation. So we will most likely postpone the submission to David until Simon found a way out of the snow and after 4.15 is released...
But it would be nice when some people could test the patch [1] (together with vxlan?) on batman-adv or batman-adv-legacy. And please provide a "Tested-by: Full Name email@example.org" [2] reply when it works.
I took a Debian Kernel package (4.14.13-1~bpo9+1), applied the patch and deployed the package on a gateway running BATMAN over VTEPs. The log messages from previous kernels don't show up anymore <3.
