NAck. This is absolutely wrong - the last one is the "STOP" info. With your 
patch, it would sometimes (action != BATADV_UEV_DEL) not have the stop NULL.
See also the second parameter in this for loop on line
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/lib/kobject_uevent.c?id=1fc596a56b334f4d593a2b49e5ff55af6aaa0816#n548

We can discuss that this can be written in a better way. See 
https://patchwork.open-mesh.org/project/b.a.t.m.a.n./patch/1403982781.9064.33.camel@joe-AO725/

Even this Fixes would be wrong. The code is there since commit
c6bda689c2c9 ("batman-adv: add wrapper function to throw uevent in 
userspace").

But even then, this would not fix anything but just be a cleanup.
