Hi folks,

here the updated patchset conceived by Sven Eckelmann for netlink interface 
creation. Since the first version the following has happened:
 * the code has been rebased on top of master
 * batadv_add_slave() / batadv_del_slave() / batadv_interface_free() were 
renamed to follow general naming conventions
 * introduced batadv_softif_destroy_netlink() dedicated to netlink deletion
 * adding clear name separation between batadv_softif_init_early() / 
batadv_softif_init_late()

Apparently, busybox "ip link" does not support creating interfaces through 
netlink which is why I was unable to actually test the code in my OpenWrt 
environments. If any if you know a way of making this work on OpenWrt or are 
brave enough to run the code natively I'd be interested in getting feedback on 
whether or not this works. I am certain the code was bug free and ran 
perfectly fine before I touched it. :)

Cheers,
Marek
