When a (broken) node wrongly sends multicast TT entries with a ROAM
flag then this causes any receiving node to drop all entries for the
same multicast MAC address announced by other nodes, leading to
packet loss.
Fix this DoS vector by only storing TT sync flags. For multicast TT
non-sync'ing flag bits like ROAM are unused so far anyway.

Since commit 54e22f265e ("batman-adv: fix TT sync flag inconsistencies")
TT sync flags and TT non-sync'd flags are supposed to be stored
separately.
The previous patch missed to apply this separation on a TT entry with
only a single TT orig entry.
This is a minor fix because with only a single TT orig entry the DDoS
issue the former patch solves does not apply.

A translation table TVLV changset sent with an OGM consists
of a number of headers (one per VLAN) plus the changeset
itself (addition and/or deletion of entries).
The per-VLAN headers are used by OGM recipients for consistency
checks. Said consistency check might determine that a full
translation table request is needed to restore consistency. If
the TT sender adds per-VLAN headers of empty VLANs into the OGM,
recipients are led to believe to have reached an inconsistent
state and thus request a full table update. The full table does
not contain empty VLANs (due to missing entries) the cycle
restarts when the next OGM is issued.
Consequently, when the translation table TVLV headers are
composed, empty VLANs are to be excluded.

The previous TT sync fix so far only fixed TT responses issued by the
target node directly. So far, TT responses issued by intermediate nodes
still lead to the wrong flags being added, leading to CRC mismatches.
This behaviour was observed at Freifunk Hannover in a 800 nodes setup
where a considerable amount of nodes were still infected with 'WI'
TT flags even with (most) nodes having the previous TT sync fix applied.
I was able to reproduce the issue with intermediate TT responses in a
four node test setup and this patch fixes this issue by ensuring to
use the per originator instead of the summarized, OR'd ones.

The functions batadv_tt_prepare_tvlv_local_data and
batadv_tt_prepare_tvlv_global_data are responsible for preparing a buffer
which can be used to store the TVLV container for TT and add the VLAN
information to it.
This will be done in three phases:
1. count the number of VLANs and their entries
2. allocate the buffer using the counters from the previous step and limits
from the caller (parameter tt_len)
3. insert the VLAN information to the buffer
The step 1 and 3 operate on a list which contains the VLANs. The access to
these lists must be protected with an appropriate lock or otherwise they
might operate on on different entries. This could for example happen when
another context is adding VLAN entries to this list.
This could lead to a buffer overflow in these functions when enough entries
were added between step 1 and 3 to the VLAN lists that the buffer room for
the entries (*tt_change) is smaller then the now required extra buffer for
new VLAN entries.

This patch fixes an issue in the translation table code potentially
leading to a TT Request + Response storm. The issue may occur for nodes
involving BLA and an inconsistent configuration of the batman-adv AP
isolation feature. However, since the new multicast optimizations, a
single, malformed packet may lead to a mesh-wide, persistent
Denial-of-Service, too.
The issue occurs because nodes are currently OR-ing the TT sync flags of
all originators announcing a specific MAC address via the
translation table. When an intermediate node now receives a TT Request
and wants to answer this on behalf of the destination node, then this
intermediate node now responds with an altered flag field and broken
CRC. The next OGM of the real destination will lead to a CRC mismatch
and triggering a TT Request and Response again.
Furthermore, the OR-ing is currently never undone as long as at least
one originator announcing the according MAC address remains, leading to
the potential persistency of this issue.
This patch fixes this issue by storing the flags used in the CRC
calculation on a a per TT orig entry basis to be able to respond with
the correct, original flags in an intermediate TT Response for one
thing. And to be able to correctly unset sync flags once all nodes
announcing a sync flag vanish for another.

batman-adv is requiring the type of wifi device in different contexts. Some
of them can take the rtnl semaphore and some of them already have the

taken.
The data has to be retrieved when the hardif is added to batman-adv because
some of the wifi information for an hardif will only be available with rtnl
lock. It can then be cached in the batadv_hard_iface and the functions
is_wifi_netdev and is_cfg80211_netdev can just compare the correct bits

Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker
dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates.
The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table
should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues.
With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to
reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to
a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved.
Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for
multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV.

The translation table (global, local) is usually the part of batman-adv
which has the most dynamical allocated objects. Most of them
(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry, tt_orig_list_entry, tt_change_node,
tt_req_node, tt_roam_node) are equally sized. So it makes sense to have
them allocated from a kmem_cache for each type.
This approach allowed a small wireless router (TP-Link TL-841NDv8; SLUB
allocator) to store 34% more translation table entries compared to the
current implementation.

Split the API in subobjects in order to improve definition readability.
At the same time, remove the "bat_" prefix from the API object and

If a VLAN tagged frame is received and the corresponding VLAN is not
configured on the soft interface, it will splat a WARN on every packet
received. This is a quite annoying behaviour for some scenarios, e.g. if
bat0 is bridged with eth0, and there are arbitrary VLAN tagged frames
from Ethernet coming in without having any VLAN configuration on bat0.
The code should probably create vlan objects on the fly and
transparently transport these VLAN-tagged Ethernet frames, but until
this is done, at least the WARN splat should be replaced by a rate
limited output.

When creating a soft interface, create it in the same netns as the
hard interface. Replace all references to init_net with the correct
name space for the interface being manipulated.

Use a static string when showing table headers rather then
a nonsense parametric one with fixed arguments.
It is easier to grep and it does not need to be recomputed
at runtime each time.

The batadv_tt_local_entry was specific to a batadv_softif_vlan and held an
implicit reference to it. But this reference was never stored in form of a
pointer in the tt_local_entry itself. Instead batadv_tt_local_remove,
batadv_tt_local_table_free and batadv_tt_local_purge_pending_clients depend
on a consistent state of bat_priv->softif_vlan_list and that
batadv_softif_vlan_get always returns the batadv_softif_vlan object which
it has a reference for. But batadv_softif_vlan_get cannot guarantee that
because it is working only with rcu_read_lock on this list. It can
therefore happen that an vid is in this list twice or that
batadv_softif_vlan_get cannot find the batadv_softif_vlan for an vid due to
some other list operations taking place at the same time.
Instead add a batadv_softif_vlan pointer directly in batadv_tt_local_entry
which will be used for the reference counter decremented on release of
batadv_tt_local_entry.

The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the
*_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put
makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection
to the *_get functions.
