Subject: [PATCH 03/10] batman-adv: release vlan object after checking the CRC

From: Antonio Quartulli <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2014 21:48:42 +0100

There is a refcounter unbalance in the CRC checking routine
invoked on OGM reception. A vlan object is retrieved (thus
its refcounter is increased by one) but it is never properly
released. This leads to a memleak because the vlan object
will never be free'd.

Fix this by releasing the vlan object after having read the
CRC.
