Subject: batman-adv: fix removing neigh_ifinfo
From: Simon Wunderlich <simon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 709de13f0c532fe9c468c094aff069a725ed57fe ]
When an interface is removed separately, all neighbors need to be
checked if they have a neigh_ifinfo structure for that particular
interface. If that is the case, remove that ifinfo so any references to
a hard interface can be freed.
This is a regression introduced by
