[Babel-users] [PATCH 3/3] utilize taskqueue for check_interfaces()

In the meantime I have extended the taskqueue for l3roamd to allow 
removing tasks and I included some stability fixes that play out when 
one core cannot handle the load of the program any more. The feature was 
needed there as well. The function has the signature:

void drop_task(taskqueue_t *elem)

Indeed resend.c is interesting as there is process logic entangled with 
implementational steps crossing many levels of abstraction in a single 
function. The first thing to do is probably clarify the existing logic. 
It is a big task. I am sending a small patch to that end in interfaces.c 
because I do care about the problem where the interface is down but it 
isn't.

Cheers

Christof
