The header file is used by different userspace programs to inject packets
or to decode sniffed packets. It should therefore be available to them as
userspace header.
Also other components in the kernel (like the flow dissector) require
access to the packet definitions to be able to decode ETH_P_BATMAN ethernet
packets.

The documentation describing kernel-doc comments for functions ("How to

name. Using this format allows to use a consistent style when adding

The "Linux kernel licensing rules" require that each file has a SPDX
license identifier as first line (and sometimes as second line).
The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no
restrictions on the placement in the source file. Using the "Linux kernel
licensing rules" is therefore also fulfilling the FSFE REUSE practices
requirements at the same time.

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()

this.

With this patch, (re)broadcasting on a specific interfaces is avoided:
* No neighbor: There is no need to broadcast on an interface if there
is no node behind it.
* Single neighbor is source: If there is just one neighbor on an
interface and if this neighbor is the one we actually got this
broadcast packet from, then we do not need to echo it back.
* Single neighbor is originator: If there is just one neighbor on
an interface and if this neighbor is the originator of this
broadcast packet, then we do not need to echo it back.
Goodies for BATMAN V:
("Upgrade your BATMAN IV network to V now to get these for free!")
Thanks to the split of OGMv1 into two packet types, OGMv2 and ELP
that is, we can now apply the same optimizations stated above to OGMv2
packets, too.
Furthermore, with BATMAN V, rebroadcasts can be reduced in certain
multi interface cases, too, where BATMAN IV cannot. This is thanks to
the removal of the "secondary interface originator" concept in BATMAN V.

The routing API data structure contains several function
pointers that can easily be grouped together based on the
component they work with.
Split the API in subobjects in order to improve definition readability.
At the same time, remove the "bat_" prefix from the API object and
its fields names. These are batman-adv private structs and there is no
need to always prepend such prefix, which only makes function invocations
much much longer.

The batadv_hardif_list list is checked in many situations and the items
in this list are given to specialized functions to modify the routing
behavior. At the moment each of these called functions has to check
itself whether the received batadv_hard_iface has a refcount > 0 before
it can increase the reference counter and use it in other objects.
This can easily lead to problems because it is not easily visible where
all callers of a function got the batadv_hard_iface object from and
whether they already hold a valid reference.
Checking the reference counter directly before calling a subfunction
with a pointer from the batadv_hardif_list avoids this problem.

In case of wireless interface retrieve the throughput by
querying cfg80211. To perform this call a separate work
must be scheduled because the function may sleep and this
is not allowed within an RCU protected context (RCU in this
case is used to iterate over all the neighbours).
Use ethtool to retrieve information about an Ethernet link
like HALF/FULL_DUPLEX and advertised bandwidth (e.g.
100/10Mbps).
The metric is updated each time a new ELP packet is sent,
this way it is possible to timely react to a metric
variation which can imply (for example) a neighbour
disconnection.

To enable ELP to send probing packets over wireless links
only if needed, batman-adv must keep track of the last time
it sent a unicast packet towards every neighbour.
For this purpose a 2 main changes are introduced:
1) a new member of the elp_neigh_node structure stores the
last time a unicast packet was sent towards this neighbour;
2) a wrapper function for sending unicast packets is
implemented. This function will simply update the member
describe din point 1) and then forward the packet to the
real sending routine.
Point 2) implies that any code-path leading to a unicast
sending now has to use the new wrapper.

This is the initial implementation of the new OGM protocol
(version 2). It has been designed to work on top of the
newly added ELP.
In the previous version the OGM protocol was used to both
measure link qualities and flood the network with the metric
information. In this version the protocol is in charge of
the latter task only, leaving the former to ELP.
This means being able to decouple the interval used by the
neighbor discovery from the OGM broadcasting, which revealed
to be costly in dense networks and needed to be relaxed so
leading to a less responsive routing protocol.
