In line 307 of net/batman-adv/bridge_loop_avoidance, when executing

Because it cannot be NULL unless something really, really, really bad 
happened. bat_priv will only be set when the gateway gets created using 
batadv_bla_get_backbone_gw(). It never gets unset during the lifetime on the 
backbone gateway.

Maybe Simon has more to say about that.

Which line would that be in your build?

At the moment, I am unable to reproduce this crash with the provided

Can you reproduce it with it? If you can, did you try to perform a bisect 
using the reproducer?

Kind regards,
