Something like the patch below should hopefully please everybody. Making
MAX_ROUNDS configurable is possibly even better (and 0=infinite), I'll see if
I can whip up an alternativ patch so you can decide which one you like better.
I've not added it to the patches branch yet, since Stephen said next release
will probably be a bugfix only release and I consider this a new feature.
(The previous patch simply makes ip addr flush behave the same as ip neigh
flush, and avoids an endless loop which I consider a staight bugfix.
Plus I don't want to do anything more with it until it's confirmed
I've set up the git repo correctly.)
I guess it's up to Stephen if he wants this feature and if he wants in now or
later... Please tell me.
Only compile-tested for now (this is on top of the previous patch):
