+ * @recv_if: interface on which the batman-adv packet was received
+ * @hdr_size: size of already parsed batman-adv header
+ * @orig_node: originator from which the batman-adv packet was sent
+ *
+ * Sends a ethernet frame to the receive path of the local @soft_iface.
+ * skb->data has still point to the batman-adv header with the size @hdr_size.
+ * The caller has to have parsed this header already and made sure that at 
least
+ * @hdr_size bytes are still available for pull in @skb.
+ *
+ * The packet may still get dropped. This can happen when the encapsulated
+ * ethernet frame is invalid or contains again an batman-adv packet. Also
+ * unicast packets will be dropped directly when it was sent between two
+ * isolated clients.
