Gateway having bandwidth_down equal to zero are not accepted at all and so never added to the Gateway list. For this reason checking the bandwidth_down member in batadv_gw_out_of_range() is useless.
This is probably a copy/paste error and this check was supposed to be "!gw_node" only. Moreover, the way the check is written now may also lead to a NULL dereference.
Fix this by rewriting the if-condition properly.
