Actually, for most of 2.6.x the behavior was somewhat
non-deterministic since it depended on kernel version and the NIC.  As
a result, I think we can safely say that this wasn't a particularly
firm interface that we have to be wedded to.  Based on overwhelming
feedback, I think the interface in this patch is the preferred one and
what we should stabilize on.

Agreed, and I've applied this patch to net-next, thanks everyone!

Hmm.

Oh well, this broke my setup, a very basic one.

eth1 and eth2 on a bonding device, bond0, active-backup

some vlans on top of bond0, say vlan.103

$ ip link show dev vlan.103
8: vlan.103@bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc
pfifo_fast state UP qlen 100
    link/ether 00:1e:0b:ec:d3:d2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff


arp_rcv() now gets packets with skb->type PACKET_OTHERHOST and drops
such packets.

By the way, we have no SNMP counter here so I spent some time to track
this. I'll send a patch for this.

If this host initiates the trafic, all is well.

Please guys, can we get back ARP or revert this patch ?

Thanks
