Hi,
I was asked to submit following pull request for net-next-2.6/linux-2.6.39. It
contains Marek's hard work (and of course related work by other people) to
remove the orig_hash (aka the batman-adv private big kernel lock).
There are also smaller cleanups by Marek, Jesper Juhl and Linus

hardif_disable_interface() calls purge_orig_ref() to immediately free
all neighbors associated with the interface that is going down.
purge_orig_neighbors() checked if the interface status is IF_INACTIVE
which is set to IF_NOT_IN_USE shortly before

bonding / alternating candidates need to be secured by rcu locks
as well. This patch therefore converts the bonding list
from a plain pointer list to a rcu securable lists and references
the bonding candidates.

It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same
rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the
refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the
refcount to use the data. To avoid this race

The rcu protected macros rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer()
for the bat_priv-curr_gw need to be used, as well as spin/rcu locking.
Otherwise we might end up using a curr_gw pointer pointing to already
freed memory.

When unicast_send_skb() is increasing the orig_node's refcount another
thread might have been freeing this orig_node already. We need to
increase the refcount in the rcu read lock protected area to avoid that.

When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the
softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer
allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and
the buffer printed - which has the following two issues:

Batman-adv works with hard interfaces as well as soft interfaces.
The new name should better make clear which kind of interfaces this
list stores.

When trying to associate a net_device with another net_device which
already exists, batman-adv assumes that this interface is a fully
initialized batman mesh interface without checking it. The behaviour
when accessing data behind netdev_priv of a random net_device is
undefined and potentially
