This doesn't build on older kernels because the name of this field was 
changed. Attached is a patch which should work(tm).

This was already discussed here:
 https://lists.open-mesh.org/pipermail/b.a.t.m.a.n/2016-April/014880.html

But there is now still the problem that info->snd_portid was previously called 
info->snd_pid. Also the genl_register_family_with_ops compat has to be added.

Kind regards,
	Sven
