Subject: Deleting a dynamic mac entry..

Hello,

In 3.19 the following bridge fdb command to delete a dynamically
learned entry fails..

root@...-3:~# bridge fdb show | grep 02:42:0a:ff:00:06
02:42:0a:ff:00:06 dev vxlan0 master br0
root@...-3:~# bridge fdb del 02:42:0a:ff:00:06 dev vxlan0 master
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory

It works in 4.4.

Can someone please point to the patch that made this change ?

In kernels without this patch is there an alternative to delete
(actually I want to do it programmatically) dynamic mac entries ?
