We dropped the support for kernels lower than 3.16.80 a long time ago [1]. It 
is irresponsible to still ship such an old kernel (and batman-adv) version 
with known security problems. And the last OpenWrt version which used 3.3 was 
something like 12.09 (Attitude Adjustment) from 2013. It is isn't supported by 
OpenWrt upstream since many year.

Please tell your hardware (+software) supplier to provide an up-to-date 
software package for your system. But since it is OpenWrt, you should just 
grab 19.07 [2] and use it - and if it is just a OpenWrt fork and the hardware 
supplier never submitted the support to the official OpenWrt then please tell 
your hw supplier to get the support correctly integrated in OpenWrt.

Kind regards,
	Sven
