this is another set of changes intended for net-next/linux-3.13. (probably our last pull request for this cycle)
Patches 1 and 2 reshape two of our main data structures in a way that they can easily be extended in the future to accommodate new routing protocols.
Patches from 3 to 9 improve our routing protocol API and its users so that all the protocol-related code is not mixed up with the other components anymore.
Patch 10 limits the local Translation Table maximum size to a value such that it can be fully transfered over the air if needed. This value depends on fragmentation being enabled or not and on the mtu values.
Patch 11 makes batman-adv send a uevent in case of soft-interface destruction while a "bat-Gateway" was configured (this informs userspace about the GW not being available anymore).
Patches 13 and 14 enable the TT component to detect non-mesh client flag changes at runtime (till now those flags where set upon client detection and were not changed anymore).
Patch 16 is a generalisation of our user-to-kernel space communication (and viceversa) used to exchange ICMP packets to send/received to/from the mesh network. Now it can easily accommodate new ICMP packet types without breaking the existing userspace API anymore.
Remaining patches are minor changes and cleanups.
Pulled, thanks Antonio.
