	Agreed; my apologies for not Cc'ing you, Uwe.

	FWIW, the "Sometimes, the issue sorts itself out after a while"
Uwe reported is likely due to something causing a switch flood (TCN or
clearing of the MAC table); in that case, the ARP reply is sent to all
ports, so the "expected" curr_arp_slave receives the ARP reply.
