The header files could not be build indepdent from each other. This is
happened because headers didn't include the files for things they've used.
This was problematic because the success of a build depended on the
knowledge about the right order of local includes.

Also source files were not including everything they've used explicitly.
Instead they required that transitive includes are always stable. This is
problematic because some transitive includes are not obvious, depend on
config settings and may not be stable in the future.

The order for include blocks are:

 * primary headers (main.h and the *.h file of a *.c file)
 * global linux headers
 * required local headers
 * extra forward declarations for pointers in function/struct declarations

The only exceptions are linux/bitops.h and linux/if_ether.h in packet.h.
This header file is shared with userspace applications like batctl and must
therefore build together with userspace applications. The header
linux/bitops.h is not part of the uapi headers and linux/if_ether.h
conflicts with the musl implementation of netinet/if_ether.h. The
maintainers rejected the use of __KERNEL__ preprocessor checks and thus
these two headers are only in main.h. All files using packet.h first have
to include main.h to work correctly.

<title>batman-adv: remove FSF address from GPL disclaimer</title>

As suggested by checkpatch, remove all the references to the
FSF address since the kernel already has one reference in
its documentation.

In this way it is easier to update it in case of future
changes.

<title>batman-adv: add sysfs framework for VLAN</title>

Each VLAN can now have its own set of attributes which are
exported through a new subfolder in the sysfs tree.
Each VLAN created on top of a soft_iface will have its own
subfolder.

The subfolder is named "vlan%VID" and it is created inside
the "mesh" sysfs folder belonging to batman-adv.

Attributes corresponding to the untagged LAN are stored in
the root sysfs folder as before.

This patch also creates all the needed macros and data
structures to easily handle new VLAN spacific attributes.

<title>batman-adv: Remove bat_ prefix from bat_{debugfs, sysfs}.{c, h}</title>

<content type='text'>
The "bat_" prefix in the source files implementing the batman-adv sysfs and
debugfs interface doesn't have a special meaning and are only used by these
files and files that implement the actual B.A.T.M.A.N. path finding algorithm.

The prefix is better suited to mark files that are used to implement the main
part of the path finding. All other files should not use it and therefore gets
renamed.
