Linus Lüssing April 10, 2015, 5:46 p.m. UTC
  With this patch, the IGMP and MLD message validation functions are moved
from the bridge code to IPv4/IPv6 multicast files. Some small
refactoring was done to enhance readibility and to iron out some
differences in behaviour between the IGMP and MLD parsing code (e.g. the
skb-cloning of MLD messages is now only done if necessary, just like the
IGMP part always did).

Finally, these IGMP and MLD message validation functions are exported so
that not only the bridge can use it but batman-adv later, too.

PS: I'm a little uncertain how this is usually done. If I should
add someone (maybe Hideaki YOSHIFUJI, the original author of the
bridge IPv6/MLD support?), then please let me know.

If you want to claim copyright, add myself (2010,
yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org).  You may have Authors: lines for both.
Also, you could have description like "Based on MLD support by
...".

Please update the copyrights as per your discussion with YOSHIFUJI
Hideaki.

Also, please provide a cover "[PATCH 0/2] " posting with a top-level
summary of what this series is doing so I can use that text in the
message of the merge commit I'll create when applying your series.

Thanks.
