Hi,
I've been seeing a failure to reply to incoming ARP packets on a bridge
interface until after the first few packets have been transmitted over
that interface, and the patch below seems to fix the issue, the 'issue'
being that the incoming ARP packets are marked with PACKET_OTHERHOST,
and there not being anything to set that back to PACKET_HOST even if
the destination MAC address matches the bridge interface's MAC address.
If this looks good, I'll prepare a proper commit message.
cheers,
Lennert
