[Patch net-next v2 2/3] bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received

From: Cong Wang <redacted>

Currently we arm the expire timer when the mdb entry is added,
however, this causes problem when there is no querier sent
out after that.

So we should only arm the timer when a corresponding query is
received, as suggested by Herbert.

And "if there is no querier then group subscriptions shouldn't expire.
There has to be at least one querier in the network for this thing to
work.  Otherwise it just degenerates into a non-snooping switch,
which is OK."
