arp_filter doesn't work.
If I'm not wrong it's applied when you have two or more interfaces in the same 
subnet. This is not the case.

I have applied hidden patch and it works.
If I'm not wrong, the hidden patch makes linux behave like other OS, separating 
selected interfaces of another interfaces.
It does not break anything because it's all configurable in /proc.

Maybe it would be good including it in the kernel package?
