So, in order to understand this, one has to know that the ->updated value is tested by the protocol specific neigh code, which in turn will thus influence whether NEIGH_UPDATE_F_OVERRIDE gets set in the call to neigh_update() or not. Please update your commit message to explain that this is how the locktime mechanism influences neigh_update()'s behavior. Thank you.
