The patch tries to solve the problem of device going down and paths being flushed on an SM change event. The method is to mark the paths as candidates for refresh (by setting the new valid flag to 0), and wait for an ARP probe a new path record query. The solution requires a different and less intrusive handling of SM change event. For that, the second argument of the flush function changes its meaning from a boolean flag to a level. In most cases, SM failover doesn't cause LID change so traffic won't stop. In the rare cases of LID change, the remote host (the one that hadn't changed its LID) will lose connectivity until paths are refreshed. This is no worse than the current state. In fact, preventing the device from going down saves packets that otherwise would be lost.
