Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] Make neighbor eviction controllable by userspace

It was suggested by Daniel Borkmann to extend the neighbor table settings
rather than adding IPv4/IPv6 options for ARP/NDISC separately. I agree
this way is much more concise since there is now only one place where the
option is checked and defined.

v1 -> v2
 - Moved documentation/code into the same patch
 - Explained in more detail the test scenario and results
