If a port joins a bridge that it can't offload, it will fallback to
standalone mode and software bridging. In this case, we never want to
offload any FDB entries to hardware either.

When you resend, please send this patch separately, unless something
breaks really ugly with your MST series in place.
Sure. I found this while testing the software fallback. It prevents a
segfault in dsa_port_bridge_host_fdb_add, which (rightly, I think)
assumes that dp->bridge is valid. I feel like this should have a Fixes:
tag, but I'm not sure which commit to blame. Any suggestions?
