[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2] alfred: vis: Don't fail when debugfs cannot be mounted

[Sven Eckelmann]

The vis server is supposed to use netlink when available. This allows to
work on systems without debugfs and under network namespaces. Thus it is
now not strictly required anymore to have debugfs available.
