[PATCH 01/11] batman-adv: don't rely on positions in struct for hashing

From: Antonio Quartulli <hidden>
Date: 2012-11-13 09:15:29

From: Simon Wunderlich <redacted>

The hash functions in the bridge loop avoidance code expects the
VLAN vid to be right after the mac address, but this is not guaranteed.

Fix this by explicitly hashing over the right fields of the struct.

Remove the inline tag.

Return the uint32_t resulting hash value rather than passing it by
reference.
