batman-adv: Don't always delete softif when last slave was removed
batman-adv has an unusual way to manage softinterfaces. These will be created automatically when a user writes to the batman-adv/mesh_iface file in sysfs and removed when no slave device exists anymore. This behaviour cannot be changed without breaking compatibility with existing code. Instead other interfaces should be able to slightly reduce this behaviour and provide a more common reaction to a removal of a slave interface.
