By this I mean: we could benefit from a more general mechanism used to deal with link-layer addresses other than the hardware station address, perhaps kept in a hash table.

Some cards support more than one station address being set up with a perfect hash filter entry; I think fxp supports this. Perhaps Bill Paul knows more?

 The M_PROMISC

  NetBSD, where the idea originated.
Separate issue, trivial change.
