No i've not asked yet. However, i don't know of any other kernel
module which does debug output in a similar way. So my guess is this
needs changing.

I keep intending to make a ToDo list. Here is what i have in my mind
at the moment. Some are just questions/ideas and all of it needs
discussing.

Finish stripping out debug_log.

Make batctl standalone.

Maybe make batctl _The_ tool for configuration and status and
depreciate direct proc access, so that we can restructure it without
too much pain for users.

Take out the dot_draw/josm formatting in vis and put it into batctl.

Think if /proc/net/batman-adv should be renamed /proc/net/bat0 giving
the option of /proc/net/bat1 etc in the future?

Should /proc/net/batman-adv/interface be replaced with an IOCTL interface
similar to brctl?

Maybe move orig_interval, aggregate_ogm and write half of vis to /sys?
At least spit vis into two.

Investigate if there is a generic linux hash algorithm which should be used?

Strip out all backward compatibility support.

Make use of printk %pM support.
