You can reproduce it easier with (destroy is only there to make sure that the 
bat0 is really empty before the originator dump):

    batctl if destroy
    batctl if create
    batctl o

The check before 

    	batadv_hardif_put(primary_if);

is missing. So it should actually be (like in the nla_put_failure case):

    	if (primary_if)
    		batadv_hardif_put(primary_if);


And "batctl if add" is basically a short version of:

   batctl if create
   batctl if add -M XXXX

And in your test, only the second part failed.

Kind regards,
	Sven
