batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add
When a VLAN interface (on top of batX) is removed and re-added within a short timeframe TT does not have enough time to properly cleanup. This creates an internal TT state mismatch as the newly created softif_vlan will be initialized from scratch with a TT client count of zero (even if TT entries for this VLAN still exist). The resulting TT messages are bogus due to the counter / tt client listing mismatch, thus creating inconsistencies on every node in the network To fix this issue destroy_vlan() has to not free the VLAN object immediately but it has to be kept alive until all the TT entries for this VLAN have been removed. destroy_vlan() still removes the sysfs folder so that the user has the feeling that everything went fine. If the same VLAN is re-added before the old object is free'd, then the latter is resurrected and re-used. Implement such behaviour by increasing the reference counter of a softif_vlan object every time a new local TT entry for such VLAN is created and remove the object from the list only when all the TT entries have been destroyed.
