Merge branch 'ipv4-Make-neigh-lookup-keys-for-loopback-point-to-point-devices-be-INADDR_ANY'
Jim Westfall says:
====================
ipv4: Make neigh lookup keys for loopback/point-to-point devices be INADDR_ANY
This used to be the previous behavior in older kernels but became broken in
a263b3093641f (ipv4: Make neigh lookups directly in output packet path)
and then later removed because it was broken in 0bb4087cbec0 (ipv4: Fix neigh
lookup keying over loopback/point-to-point devices)
Not having this results in there being an arp entry for every remote ip
address that the device talks to. Given a fairly active device it can
cause the arp table to become huge and/or having to add/purge large number
of entires to keep within table size thresholds.
