The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit b7a8d756fb8080ab6ba9f4a9d4056a1056245fbc Author: Rasmus Villemoes linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk Date: Mon Oct 13 15:54:42 2014 -0700

batman-adv: replace strnicmp with strncasecmp

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited, case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.

To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.
