[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v9 00/14] netns and netlink support

[Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>]

This patchset completes netns support, by disabling debugfs entries
when not in the default name space, and correctly handling interface
stack loops when the parent is in a different name space.

It additionally adds netlink support for most of the information found
in debugfs, and is netns aware.

This patchset is based on Andrews v7 series and contains an update/rebase
of the v8 sent by myself on May 23rd, with the following changes:

 * removed useless initialization "struct net_device *soft_iface = NULL;" in:
   - batadv_tt_global_dump
   - batadv_hardif_neigh_dump
   - batadv_orig_dump
   - batadv_gw_dump
   - batadv_bla_claim_dump
   - batadv_bla_backbone_dump
 * add kerneldoc about rcu_read_lock requirement to:
   - batadv_tt_global_dump_entry
   - batadv_iv_ogm_neigh_dump_hardif
   - batadv_iv_ogm_orig_dump_entry
   - batadv_v_neigh_dump_hardif
   - batadv_v_orig_dump_entry
 * simplify code to add BATADV_ATTR_LAST_SEEN_MSECS in batadv_tt_local_dump_entry
 * rebased on top of current master and fix conflicts with batadv_algo_ops restructuring

It should apply clean on todays master.

The batctl patches will be sent separately.

Cheers,
    Simon
