If the source or destination mac address of an ethernet packet
could not be found in the translation table the packet was
dropped if AP isolation was turned on. This behavior would
make it impossible to send broadcast packets over the mesh as
the broadcast address will never enter the translation table.

bug introduced with cea194d90b11aff7fc289149e4c7f305fad3535a
In the current TT code, when a TT_Response containing a full table is received
from an originator, first the node purges all the clients for that originator in
the global translation-table and then merges the newly received table.
During the purging phase each client deletion is done by means of a call_rcu()
invocation and at the end of this phase the global entry counter for that
originator is set to 0. However the invoked rcu function decreases the global
entry counter for that originator by one too and since the rcu invocation is
likely to be postponed, the node will end up in first setting the counter to 0
and then decreasing it one by one for each deleted client.
This bug leads to having a wrong global entry counter for the related node, say
X. Then when the node with the broken counter will answer to a TT_REQUEST on
behalf of node X, it will create faulty TT_RESPONSE that will generate an
unrecoverable situation on the node that asked for the full table recover.
The non-recoverability is given by the fact that the node with the broken
counter will keep answering on behalf of X because its knowledge about X's state
(ttvn + tt_crc) is correct.
To solve this problem the counter is not explicitly set to 0 anymore and the
counter decrement is performed right before the invocation of call_rcu().

Hello David,
after pulling these patchset in net, you should hit a conflict while trying to
merge net into net-next. The conflict is caused by the renaming patches that you
already have in the next tree.
Here are our instructions about how to solve it. Hope they will help.
Thank you.
Conflict 1:
<<<<<<<
orig_entry = container_of(rcu, struct batadv_tt_orig_list_entry, rcu);
atomic_dec(&orig_entry->orig_node->tt_size);
batadv_orig_node_free_ref(orig_entry->orig_node);
=======
orig_entry = container_of(rcu, struct tt_orig_list_entry, rcu);
orig_node_free_ref(orig_entry->orig_node);
>>>>>>>
Resolves to:
=======
orig_entry = container_of(rcu, struct batadv_tt_orig_list_entry, rcu);
batadv_orig_node_free_ref(orig_entry->orig_node);
=======
Conflict 2:
<<<<<<<
call_rcu(&orig_entry->rcu, batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_free_rcu);
=======
/* to avoid race conditions, immediately decrease the tt counter */
atomic_dec(&orig_entry->orig_node->tt_size);
call_rcu(&orig_entry->rcu, batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_free_rcu);
>>>>>>>
Resolves to:
=======
/* to avoid race conditions, immediately decrease the tt counter */
atomic_dec(&orig_entry->orig_node->tt_size);
call_rcu(&orig_entry->rcu, batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_free_rcu);
=======
Conflict 3:
<<<<<<<
struct batadv_tt_local_entry *tt_local_entry = NULL;
struct batadv_tt_global_entry *tt_global_entry = NULL;
bool ret = true;
=======
struct tt_local_entry *tt_local_entry = NULL;
struct tt_global_entry *tt_global_entry = NULL;
bool ret = false;
>>>>>>>
Resolves to:
=======
struct batadv_tt_local_entry *tt_local_entry = NULL;
struct batadv_tt_global_entry *tt_global_entry = NULL;
bool ret = false;
=======
Conflict 4:
<<<<<<<
if (_batadv_is_ap_isolated(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry))
=======
if (!_is_ap_isolated(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry))
>>>>>>>
Resolves to:
=======
if (!_batadv_is_ap_isolated(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry))
=======
