The namespace pollution of the batman-adv code needs to improve,

If you have a static function which is therefore private to a
source file, name it whatever you want.

But once it gets exported out of that file, you have to give it
an appropriate name.  Probably with a "batman_adv_" prefix or
similar.

I aggree, but would like to like to have a shorter prefix batadv_. I know that 
you said "or similar" but there are still some developers that fear your 
response to a patch that only adds the prefix batadv_ instead of the longer 
version.

Could you please approve or disapprove this proposal.

Thanks,
