Subject: [iproute2] iproute2: Allow 'ip addr flush' to loop more than 10 times.
From: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com>
The default remains at 10 for backwards compatibility.
For instance:
# ip addr flush dev eth2
*** Flush remains incomplete after 10 rounds. ***
# ip -l 20 addr flush dev eth2
*** Flush remains incomplete after 20 rounds. ***
# ip -loops 0 addr flush dev eth2
#
This is useful for getting rid of large numbers of IP
addresses in scripts.
