This patchset introduces the AP-isolation functionality. As for common access
points, the AP-isolation is a mechanism that prevents clients to communicate
to each other. In batman-adv the AP-isolation, if activated, will prevent
"WIFI bridged-in clients" to communicate with any other "WIFI bridged-in
client".

The first patch introduces a mechanism which permit to detect the interface type
used by a client and to possibly mark its tt_local_entry in case of WIFI. This
information is then spread over the network within the TT announcements.

The other two patches implement the AP-isolation mechanism which exploits the
WIFI mark (on tt_entries) to prevent communications between WIFI clients.

The "AP-isolation check" is done either on the receiver and on the sender side.

Best regards,
	Antonio Quartulli
