Sven, any idea why checkpatch (0.31)b do this ?
ERROR: space prohibited after that '-' (ctx:WxW) #10: FILE: batman-adv/routing.c:1146:

Because... what the heck? Usually it says that you should use consistent spaces around '-'. So better use spaces in patch 1 and 6 and don't remove the space before hdr_len as you did now.
Because it is wrong. I believe that I've fixed that one up in my development tree. Could you confirm it is correctly left alone with the version below:

Yes, the testing version doesn't show that behavior.
thanks, Sven
