After some research, here come my status :

Looks like the current code isn't taking care of a possible changing of IFF_BROADCAST. I can find some code in net/core/dev.c to handle MULTICAST or PROMISC but nothing for BROADCAST. do I have to implement one ?

Looks like I need then to add a .ndo_change_rx_flags function to manage this changes.
Does someone confirm this is the way to go ?
