[PATCH net-next 02/15] batman-adv: remove global hardif list

From: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
Date: 2026-06-30 14:06:28
Also in: batman
Subsystem: batman advanced, the rest · Maintainers: Marek Lindner, Simon Wunderlich, Antonio Quartulli, Sven Eckelmann, Linus Torvalds

From: Nora Schiffer <redacted>

With interfaces being kept track of as iflink private data, there is no
need for the global list anymore. batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev() can now
use netdev_master_upper_dev_get()+netdev_lower_dev_get_private() to find
the hardif corresponding to a netdev.
