char was used in different places to store information without really
using the characteristics of that data type or by ignoring the fact that
char has not a well defined signedness.

count_real_packets() in batman-adv assumes char is signed, and returns -1
through it:
net/batman-adv/routing.c: In function 'receive_bat_packet':
net/batman-adv/routing.c:739: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type
Use int instead.

It is not necessary to cast a void* to the pointer type when we just
store it and don't want to do pointer arithmetic before the actual
assignment.

batman-adv uses pointers which are marked as const and should not
violate that type qualifier by passing it to functions which force a
cast to the non-const version.
