  Currently, batadv_get_real_netdevice can return different results in
this situation:

    ip netns add main
    ip netns add peer
    ip -net main link add dummy1 type dummy
    ip -net main link add link dummy1 netns peer type macsec # same ifindex as dummy1
    ip -net main link add link dummy1 netns peer type macsec port 2

Let's use the presence of a ndo_get_iflink operation, rather than the
value it returns, to detect a device without a link.
