The hardif patches were added to OpenWrt before they were accepted in the
upstream repository. This seemed necessary at that time because OpenWrt
19.07 was alreadu branched of (to be released soon).
But the upstream merged patches contain more cleanups. Having the actual
upstream version in OpenWrt make it easier to integrate potential bugfixes.

batctl currently supports settings which are either mesh interface or vlan
specific. But B.A.T.M.A.N. V introduced two additional settings which are
hard (slave) interface specific.
To support these, an additional command prefix called hardif is implemented
for some sysfs commands:
$ batctl -m bat0 hardif eth0 ..
The usable commands with that are:
* elp_interval
* throughput_override
