I've wanted this on Catalyst platforms for a long time, it doesn't really exist. On your platforms, you should be able to apply unicast storm-control to control the number of pps on a per-physical port basis, but you can't write a QoS policy that can be applied in general. Doesn't seem to be any way to do it on a VLAN. If you enable it on a trunk port, all VLANs will be dropped when one exceeds the threshold - probably not what you want.
