Description

find_interface_ip() in /etc/inc/interfaces.inc has a flush parameter, but that only seems to ignore the $interface_ip_arr_cache.

If the CARP VIP is in /var/db/{$interface}_ip when calling find_interface_ip() with flush the VIP will still be used.

I think it would make sense to add another parameter such as $ignore_cache_file to force the function to reload the current preferred address directly from the interface. This could then be set when calling the function as needed.

This issue was noticed as dpinger was monitoring on the CARP VIP instead of the interface address.
