Hi,

we had decided that different files must move from sysfs to debugfs in recent 
discussion with gregkh. But their was also the problem that we currently use 
/dev/batman-adv to send special batman-adv "icmp" packets to the mesh. This 
file is maybe a problem when we want to support different batX interfaces on a 
single machine.

So we have the problem that we want to move different files to debugfs and get 
support for it in batctl. It seemed to be easier (better readable) for me to 
first start to get a single file to debugfs and then build on top of the 
created infrastructure in batctl/batman-adv-kernelland to move more files. My 
choice was /dev/batman-adv as we had some open question how good it works with 
debugfs.

Unfortunately I am not able to continue it today, but don't want to stop other 
people working on similar things. I will attach v0 (aka works for me, but 
maybe not perfect/good enough) versions of these patches to support them. 
Please feel free to discuss the patches.

Best regards,
	Sven
