Upstream seems to still consider this to be experimental [0].

> +	default y

What we talked about earlier [1], was to always enable it, not to change
the default.

Now, people that have a defconfig file with BATMAN-V disabled (i.e.
there would be nothing in the defconfig as 'is not set' is the default),
will have it enabled now.

So, if upstream recommends to not disable it (do you have a ref?), then
we should just drop our option, and to always enable it.

Thoughts?
