The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the
*_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put
makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection
to the *_get functions.

v7:
 - removed patches which are now applied in the branch master
 - split *_get -> *_put rename patches into smaller patches only renaming single
   functions
v6:
 - removed patches which are now applied in the branch next
 - rebased remaining patches on the patch
   "batman-adv: Avoid recursive call_rcu for batadv_nc_node" which was
   modified by Marek while he applied the patches (this unfortunately made
   some of the remaining patches slightly harder to apply)
v5:
 - add hack which allows to compile against stable kernel like 3.2.44 which
   also added the kref_get_unless_zero function
v4:
 - fix function names in commit messages
 - fix double whitespace in batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_release kerneldoc
 - add extra patch for batadv_claim_free_ref kerneldoc fix
 - change the phrase "free it" in all *_free_ref/*_put functions to "release it"
v3:
 - update copyright year
v2:
 - split patchset into fixes and kref migration to make it easier when the
   decision is made where each patch will be applied
