Broadcast packets send via batadv_send_outstanding_bcast_packet() were
originally copied in batadv_forw_bcast_packet_to_list() before being
queued. And after that only the ethernet header will be pushed through
batadv_send_broadcast_skb()->batadv_send_skb_packet() which works safely
on skb clones as it uses batadv_skb_head_push()->skb_cow_head().
