The mesh side has become fairly huge in many communities. Up to
a few thousand entries can currently be found in the forwarding
database (fdb) of a bridge for its bridge port bat0.
The bridge fdb is kind of redundant to the batman-adv global translation
table here. Therefore this patch tries to reduce memory footprint by
following an approach similar to the IGMP/MLD split patchset approach:
Make the bridge oblivious not only regarding multicast listeners towards
the mesh but with this patch unicast hosts on the mesh, too.
If the destination of an ethernet frame is known by the bridge to be a
local one, then the frame is forwarded to the according port. If it is
unknown, then the frame is forwarded to the wifi AP interface and bat0.
mac80211 and batman-adv then know whether to drop or forward a frame
further through their own book-keeping.
Note that unicast-flood is not disabled for the wifi AP bridge port, nor
is learning disabled on the wifi AP. This is mainly to keep the
configuration in UCI and according setup scripts simple ;). However, not
disalbling unicast-flood on the wifi AP interface might also give a
minor latency improvement for newly joining wifi clients.

The arguments are now provided by gluon-mesh-batman-adv-core, so
gluon-radvd can be used with other mesh protocols.
[Matthias Schiffer: removed PROVIDES dependency]
Some drivers (mt76) don't support arbitrary MAC addresses. Use the
addresses provided by the driver (avoiding the primary address) by default,
but fall back to our has-based scheme when the driver doesn't provide
(enough) addresses.
This call takes an input and an output argument and will copy all files
from the input to the output, while minifying the Lua files.
[Matthias Schiffer: simplified definition, added commit message.]
Introduce new fixes:
* Avoid nullptr dereference in bla after vlan_insert_tag
* Avoid nullptr dereference in dat after vlan_insert_tag
* Avoid tt_req_node list put for unhashed entry
* Fix orig_node_vlan leak on orig_node_release
* Fix non-atomic bla_claim::backbone_gw access
* Fix reference leak in batadv_find_router
* Free last_bonding_candidate on release of orig_node
Also replace the gluon version of the speedyjoin patch with the one already
included in openwrt-routing.
