Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: bridge: do not send arp replies if src and target hw addr is the same

There are broken devices in the wild that handle duplicate IP address
detection by sending out ARP requests for the IP that they received from a
DHCP server and refuse the address if they get a reply.
When proxyarp is enabled, they would go into a loop of requesting an address
and then NAKing it again.
