here is a minor bugfix/cleanup pull request of batman-adv to go into net-next.

Can you look thru the Sashiko comments here (especially Medium+
severity)?

We were just waiting for a verdict. I am guessing it it a "no, will not 
merge", correct?

At a glance patch 14 does not inspire confidence. I guess patch 15
removes the worst part - but is there a real reason not to use locking?

In its current state, you would need spinlocks over larger (op-count) portions 
of code in the hot-path. And since it it nearly impossible to get feedback 
from the TT author/maintainer, I am not willing to invest time in a total 
rewrite of the TT infrastructure.
