Hi Marek,

I reverted the changes step by step starting with patch 
0002-remove-netdev_calls.patch, as patch 1 did not help and patch 3 
containes in compat.h and soft-interface.c, I tried out myself earlier 
today.

The essential call is in patch 2 as assumed. As soon as I add the 
netdev_master_upper_dev_link call again to the compilable code, the 
problem starts to occur (mesh doesn't work as soon as bat0 is added to the 
bridge, ogm packets can be seen at bat0). It seems that this call behaves 
in older kernels different compared to newer ones.

I haven't tried to add all the other excluded parts again except for the 
netdev_master_upper_dev_link call. If you are interested I can test this 
tomorrow, too.

Regards,
Andreas
