Last night we got to the bottom of this. The new hotplug based system is at 
the core of the issue: The Ethernet driver on the device is compiled into the 
kernel, thus loaded before the batman-adv kernel module is loaded. As a result 
the "interface add" event is triggered before batman-adv is active and the 
device can't be added to the batman-adv mesh.

Filippo, I cc'ed you because you are the "father" of the hotplug based system. 
Seems we are having some side effects. Any idea how to fix it ?

Marek
