Yes, you are completely correct. I flipped the meaning of the
macro, but forgot to account correctly for it.
static == not flooding && not learning.
auto != static.
The reason I count "auto" ports is so I only have to keep 1 counter
around. If I counted static, I'd also have to count all ports as well.
Not much of a difference, but it's one less counter.
Fill fix.
