Hi,

I like the idea of using the iface "ifup" hook for adding hard-interfaces. On 
the other hand I opt for keeping the net "remove" hook for removing them 
because batman-adv handles these ifup/ifdown blips internally. If you adjust 
that part I'll will merge your patch.

Excellent catch!

Cheers,
Marek
