[PATCH net-next 13/15] batman-adv: tp_meter: keep unacked list for receivers

Newsgroups org.open-mesh.lists.batman,org.kernel.vger.netdev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Sven Eckelmann <[email protected]>

There is no need to share the unacked list between sender and receivers.
Only receivers will ever write to and read from it. The initialization in
batadv_tp_start() was therefore never needed. After its removal, it is
enough to just store it in struct batadv_tp_receiver.
