Hi Russell

Never called.

So i guess we have a kernel configuration difference.

I don't have CONFIG_BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING.

Yep, confirmed. When i enable this option, and VLAN_8021Q which it
depends on, i then have a working bridge.

It sounds like Vivien urgently needs to do some extra work to fix
the patches that created all this broken-ness, or we need to ask
davem to revert back to a known good working state.

Indeed hardware bridging currently relies on 802.1Q and VLAN filtering
enabled. I will work on this asap.

Thanks,
