Re: [PATCH net-next 6/6] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Flood broadcast frames in hardware

Hi Andrew, Florian,

It took me a while to make this work with CONFIG_BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING
enabled. Any change to enable hardware flooding needs careful testing
for lots of different configurations. This is another reason i don't
want to do it at the DSA level, until we have a good understanding
what it means in each individual driver.

Then if we are worried about how broadcast flooding is handled on
different switches, we can provide a new .flood_broadcast(ds, vid)
switch operation for the drivers to implement.
