Hi,

I would like tp propose following corrections for net-next-2.6/2.6.40.
Both are bug fixes. The first one fixes the regression introduced by
"batman-adv: Make bat_priv->primary_if an rcu protected pointer" which
prevented that the attached net_devices could be destroyed because the
references to them were incorrectly counted.

The second one is a bug which may "filled" the broadcast queue when at
the same time primary_if got changed and a broadcast was initiated. The
queue counter were never reduced because there were no actual packets
attached to the the queue.

thanks,
	Sven
