 Included change:
 - fix "rtnl locked" concurrent executions by using rtnl_lock instead of
   rtnl_trylock. This fix enables batman-adv initialisation to do not fail just
   because somewhere else in the system another code path is holding the rtnl
   lock. It is easy to see the problem when batman-adv is trying to start
   together with other networking components.
 - fix the routing protocol forwarding policy by enhancing the duplicate control
   packet detection. When the right circumstances trigger the issue, some nodes in
   the network become totally unreachable, so breaking the mesh connectivity.
 - fix the Bridge Loop Avoidance component by not running the originator address
   change handling routine when the component is disabled. The routine was
   generating useless packets that were sent over the network.
