From: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>

The routing code has 2 sections which warn about ttl exceeded. The
corresponding warnings were identical which makes it hard to debug. In
addition, batman-adv does not need to warn about ttl exceeded in case
we encountered an echo request as this is commonly used to generate
traceroute graphs.
