[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: don't rely on positions in struct for hashing

[Simon Wunderlich]

The hash functions in the bridge loop avoidance code expects the
VLAN vid to be right after the mac address, but this is not guaranteed.

Fix this by explicitly hashing over the right fields of the struct.
