<id>urn:sha1:95d392784dd0a51e4216e075f04a68c922745985</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

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.

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based
on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and
therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.
