Follow-up Comment #1, bug #31720 (project lwip):

I've read parts of RFC 1122 and i agree with your suggestion.  Queuing 1
packet would save some code too. RFC 1122 also has a MUST specified for
preventing ARP flooding by using a timer to limit the frequency of ARP replies
sent for incoming ARP requests. To me this sounds worth implementing to be
more RFC1122 compliant as well as preventing ARP DoS problems.
