Description

I spotted this behaviour in batctl 2018.2 with batman 2018.2:

root@node72:~# batctl l
Error - mesh has not been enabled yet
Activate your mesh by adding interfaces to batman-adv

but with:

root@node72:~# batctl if
ens20: active
tap0: active

according to ecsv batctl can't access /sys/kernel/debug/batman_adv/bat0/ if debugfs is deactivated. (This is new default.)

Maybe the message could be more accurate to give a hint how to get batctl l working.

This also affects the nc_nodes (nn) subcommand because there is no netlink implementation for that.
