Merge tag 'batman-adv-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge

Included changes:
- substitute FSF address with URL
- deselect current bat-GW when GW-client mode gets deactivated
- send every DHCP packet using bat-unicast messages when GW-client mode is
  enabled
- implement the Extended Isolation mechanism (it is an enhancement of the
  already existing batman-AP-isolation). This mechanism allows the user to drop
  packets exchanged by selected clients by using netfilter marks.
- fix typ0 in header guard
- minor code cleanups
