[libvirt] [PATCH 2/9] add DHCP snooping support to nwfilter

The ARP protocol requires processing of packets that may not be explicitly addressed to a host and only defines request and reply. This patch removes the filtering of gratuitous ARPs and ARP requests which must update a VMs patch for correct function and removes the unnecessary check for arpop of request or reply.
