Hi Dave, I notice that this patch was never applied to "net-next". I
have one more patch contribution to make to the bridge code regarding
Proxy ARP IPv4. I would very much like this patch by Stephen to be
applied as well. I have no problem resubmitting this patch (with the
empty line removed). Do you want me to do that as part of the set?

Thanks!
