received from another backbone gw

skb should be freed in batadv_recv_bcast_packet if packet shall be dropped
due to
reception from another backbone gateway of the same backbone.

I disagree. In the original code, we return NET_RX_DROP, which makes the 
calling code already free the skb. Check batadv_batman_skb_recv() in main.c.
