  Bitwise OR/AND assignments in C aren't guaranteed to be atomic. One
OGM handler might undo the set/clear of a specific bit from another
handler run in between.

Fix this by using the atomic set_bit()/clear_bit() functions.

Fixes: 2b1c07b918d2 ("batman-adv: tvlv - add distributed arp table container")
