Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: tt: clear ROAM flag when re-adding a pending
 local client

When a ROAMING_ADV is received for an announced local client,
batadv_tt_local_mark_removed() sets BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ROAM, queues a
DEL|ROAM change and marks the entry as BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING. If the
client sends a frame again before the next TTVN commit,
batadv_tt_local_add_existing() only clears the PENDING flag and returns
early. The ADD cancels the queued DEL, but the entry keeps the ROAM flag:

* batadv_is_my_client() reports the client as not served by this node
* batadv_tt_local_client_is_roaming() reroutes unicast frames for it to
  the node which sent the ROAMING_ADV

The ROAM flag is only removed with the next frame of the client.

Since BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ROAM is set together with BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING,
it has to be cleared also at the same time with BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING
when the client roamed back.

[PATCH 6.1.y] batman-adv: tt: clear ROAM flag when re-adding a pending local client

[Sven Eckelmann]

commit cc2186d7854785b30d423f5d43757b086b300e55 upstream.

When a ROAMING_ADV is received for an announced local client,
batadv_tt_local_mark_removed() sets BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ROAM, queues a
DEL|ROAM change and marks the entry as BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING. If the
client sends a frame again before the next TTVN commit,
batadv_tt_local_add_existing() only clears the PENDING flag and returns
early. The ADD cancels the queued DEL, but the entry keeps the ROAM flag:

* batadv_is_my_client() reports the client as not served by this node
* batadv_tt_local_client_is_roaming() reroutes unicast frames for it to
  the node which sent the ROAMING_ADV

The ROAM flag is only removed with the next frame of the client.

Since BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ROAM is set together with BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING,
it has to be cleared also at the same time with BATADV_TT_CLIENT_PENDING
when the client roamed back.
