Considering that you also have the option of setting
ds->assisted_learning_on_cpu_port = true and this will have less false

You're right. Hardware learning on CPU port does have some limitations.

I have been testing a multi CPU ports patch, and assisted learning has
to be used, because FDB entries should be installed like multicast
ones, which point to all CPU ports.
