Both translation tables and network coding use timeouts to do house
keeping, so we might as well share the function used to compare a
timestamp+timeout with current time.
For readability and simplicity, the function is renamed to
has_timed_out() and uses time_is_before_jiffies() instead of
time_after().

Most of the values in that call are derived from the skb, so we can hand
over the skb instead.

All batman-adv packets have a common 3 byte header. It can be used to share
some code between different code paths, but it was never explicit stated that
this header has to be always the same for all packets. Therefore, new code
changes always have the problem that they may accidently introduce regressions
by moving some elements around.
A new structure is introduced that contains the common header and makes it
easier visible that these 3 bytes have to be the same for all on-wire packets.

(ttvn == 0) is currently used as initial condition. However this is not a good
idea because ttvn gets the vale zero each time after reaching the maximum value
(wrap around). For this reason a new flag is added in order to define whether a
node has an initialised table or not. Moreover, after invoking
tt_global_del_orig(), tt_initialised has to be set to false

I didn't resolve the merge properly during the last pull of the net
tree into net-next.
The code in the final resolution should set flags to TT_CLIENT_ROAM
not TT_CLIENT_PENDING.

When receiving a DEL change for a client due to a roaming event (change is
marked with TT_CLIENT_ROAM), each node has to check if the client roamed
to itself or somewhere else.
In the latter case the global entry is kept to avoid having no route at all
otherwise we can safely delete the global entry

In case of a client roaming from node A to node B, the latter have to mark the
corresponding global entry with TT_CLIENT_ROAM (instead of TT_CLIENT_PENDING).
Marking a global entry with TT_CLIENT_PENDING will end up in keeping such entry
forever (because this flag is only meant to be used with local entries and it is
never checked on global ones).
In the worst case (all the clients roaming to the same node A) the local and the
global table will contain exactly the same clients. Batman-adv will continue to
work, but the memory usage is duplicated.

When entering softif_create(), the rtnl lock has already been acquired
by store_mesh_iface().
(store_mesh_iface() -> hardif_enable_interface() -> softif_create)
In case of an error, we should therefore call unregister_netdevice()
instead of unregister_netdev().
unregister_netdev() tries to acquire the rtnl lock itself and deadlocks
in this situation. unregister_netdevice() assumes that the rtnl lock
is already been held.

The tt_local_reset_flags() is actually used for one use case only. It is not
generalised enough to be used indifferent situations. This patch make it general
enough in order to let other code use it whenever a flag set is requested over
the whole hash table (passed as parameter). The function is now called
tt_set_flags()

Several functions in the translation table management code assume that the
tt_global_entry and tt_local_entry structures have the same initial fields such
as 'addr' and 'hash_entry'. To improve the code readability and to avoid
mistakes in later changes, a common substructure that substitute the shared
fields has been introduced (struct tt_common_entry).
Thanks to this modification, it has also been possible to slightly reduce the
code length by merging some functions like compare_ltt/gtt() and
tt_local/global_hash_find()
