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.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

The documentation describing kernel-doc comments for functions ("How to
format kernel-doc comments") uses parentheses at the end of the function
name. Using this format allows to use a consistent style when adding
documentation to a function and when referencing this function in a
different kernel-doc section.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

The linux/gfp.h provides the GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL define. It should
therefore be included instead of linux/fs.h.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

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.[1] https://reuse.software/practices/

Sending functions in Linux consume the supplied skbuff. Doing the same in
batadv_send_skb_to_orig avoids the hack of returning -1 (-EPERM) to signal
the caller that he is responsible for cleaning up the skb.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done
near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right
before the place which requires the reference and in the same function
helps to avoid accidental problems caused by incorrect reference counting.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

Return the proper netdev TX status along the TX path so that the tp_meter

The tvlv functionality in main.c is mostly unrelated to the rest of the
content. It still takes up a large portion of this source file (~45%, 588
lines). Moving it to a separate file makes it better visible as a main
component of the batman-adv implementation and hides it less in the other
helper functions in main.cSigned-off-by: Markus Pargmann
