If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sridhar Samudrala <sri@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 014be2c8eac3381e202f684c1f35ae184a8b152b ] Fix some instances where vxlan fdb 'used' field is not updated after the entry is used. v2: rename vxlan_find_mac() as __vxlan_find_mac() and create a new vxlan_find_mac() that also updates ->used field.
