Subject: vxlan: do not age static remote mac entries
From: Balakrishnan Raman <ramanb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit efb5f68f32995c146944a9d4257c3cf8eae2c4a1 ]
Mac aging is applicable only for dynamically learnt remote mac
entries. Check for user configured static remote mac entries
and skip aging.
