3.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Linus L�ssing <linus.luess...@web.de>

[ Upstream commit dbd6b11e15a2f96030da17dbeda943a8a98ee990 ]

On some architectures test_bit() can return other values than 0 or 1:

With a generic x86 OpenWrt image in a kvm setup (batadv_)test_bit()
frequently returns -1 for me, leading to batadv_iv_ogm_update_seqnos()
wrongly signaling a protected seqno window.

This patch tries to fix this issue by making batadv_test_bit() return 0
or 1 only.
