Probably a good idea. We should define exactly what is flushed. Everything? Or only dynamic entries? The Marvell hardware can also have multicast addresses in its tables, which can age, or static unicast and multicast entries. I guess at some point, somebody will start thinking about IGMP snooping and then we might need separated operations.
