  From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

The debug messages of _batadv_update_route were printed before the actual
route change is done. At this point it is not really known which
curr_router will be replaced. Thus the messages could print the wrong
operation.

Printing the debug messages after the operation was done avoids this
problem.
