The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit 06e56ded867d1035b877aba28189736f41e85ab0 Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Sat Jan 16 10:29:43 2016 +0100

batman-adv: Convert batadv_bla_backbone_gw to kref

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.
