The script mentions 2014.3.0. Anyway, both versions have known problems. See
https://git.open-mesh.org/batman-adv.git/blob/HEAD:/CHANGELOG.rst

Ok, I have no idea why it failed. Maybe because it wasn't successful? Or
because there was a problem? Or was there maybe an error? ;)
A little bit more serious: Any info what failed? Any build errors? What does
modinfo batman-adv say? Are there multiple batman-adv.ko in your
/lib/modules/... and the wrong one was loaded by modprobe? Does `depmod -a`
help (generates the module.dep again)?

I don't want to crush your hopes but if you use broken components then you
will most likely end up with a broken finished product. And as I said earlier,
there are numerous known problems in the batman-adv versions which you've
mentioned earlier.
Kind regards,
Sven
