Staging: batman-adv: bonding and interface alternating
This patch adds interface alternating to the new bonding feature. By
default, we now try to avoid forwarding packets on the receiving
interface, instead choosing alternative interfaces. This feature
works only on nodes which have multiple interfaces connected to the
mesh. This approach should reduce problems of the half-duplex nature
of WiFi Hardware and thus increase performance.
