We currently set the value that variable vid is pointing, which will be
used in FDB later, to 0 at br_allowed_ingress() when we receive untagged
or priority-tagged frames, even though the PVID is valid.
This leads to FDB updates in such a wrong way that they are learned with
VID 0.
Update the value to that of PVID if the PVID is applied.

Ok, but side-effects seem like an indication of poor code logic
flow design. Not your fault but part of the the per-vlan filtering code.
I'll see if I can re-work the code to get rid of the side-effects.
