Starting with kernel v3.2.39, a Debian specific patch defines
eth_hw_addr_random() in include/linux/etherdevice.h, causing the build of
batman-adv to fail.
This patch fixes the build on these kernels while keeping compatiblity with
unpatched kernels by replacing batman-adv's compat definition of the
eth_hw_addr_random() function with a #define macro.
