[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 095/133] batman-adv: Make DAT capability changes atomic

3.16.7-ckt18 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: =?UTF-8?q?Linus=20L=C3=BCssing?= <linus.luessing at c0d3.blue>

commit 65d7d46050704bcdb8121ddbf4110bfbf2b38baa upstream.

Bitwise OR/AND assignments in C aren't guaranteed to be atomic. One
OGM handler might undo the set/clear of a specific bit from another
handler run in between.

Fix this by using the atomic set_bit()/clear_bit()/test_bit() functions.

Fixes: 17cf0ea455f1 ("batman-adv: tvlv - add distributed arp table container")
