Here is the changelog (since the RFC):

v2:
 - use kmem_cache_zalloc instead of kmem_cache_alloc + memset as
   suggested by Linus
 - add cache batadv_tt_change_cache, batadv_tt_req_cache,
   batadv_tt_roam_cache
 - Added Reported-by
 - rewrote commit message
 - summarize+link the results from Linus' tests

Kind regards,
