br_handle_local_finish() is allowing us to insert an FDB entry with
disallowed vlan. For example, when port 1 and 2 are communicating in
vlan 10, and even if vlan 10 is disallowed on port 3, port 3 can
interfere with their communication by spoofed src mac address with
vlan id 10.

Note: Even if it is judged that a frame should not be learned, it should
not be dropped because it is destined for not forwarding layer but higher
layer. See IEEE 802.1Q-2011 8.13.10.

In reference to Vlad's suggestion to try to reuse the logic of the
existing br_allowed_ingress() function, I don't think that's so
easy.

As stated already, it drops packets whilst we don't want that here.

Another difference is that it does vlan_untag(), which we also do
not want here.

Let's just stay with this version of the fix, Vlad if you're OK with
that can you please give your ACK?  Thanks.

Applied, thanks everyone.

I need to spend a little time and figure out how to make it more re-usable.

Ok.
