3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@web.de>
commit 7f112af40fecf5399b61e69ffc6b55a9d82789f7 upstream.
So far the crc16 checksum for a batman-adv broadcast data packet, received on a batman-adv hard interface, was calculated over zero bytes of its content leading to many incoming broadcast data packets wrongly being dropped (60-80% packet loss).
This patch fixes this issue by calculating the crc16 over the actual, complete broadcast payload.
The issue is a regression introduced by ("batman-adv: add broadcast duplicate check").
