BCM5325 doesn't implement UC_FLOOD_MASK, MC_FLOOD_MASK and IPMC_FLOOD_MASK registers. This has to be handled differently with other pages and registers. Fixes: a8b659e7ff75 ("net: dsa: act as passthrough for bridge port flags") Signed-off-by: Álvaro Fernández Rojas <redacted> ---[snip]quoted

They are not documented in my databook.They are in 5325E-DS14-R pages 112 - 112 (134/135) That being said, I don't thing we need to touch the MC/BC/DLF rate control registers when enabling/disabling flooding - these only limit how much traffic may be UC / MC on a port, but apart from that they do not limit flooding. We don't limit this on other switch models either.
In that case there's nothing to enable/disable on the BCM5325 and we should do an early return on b53_port_set_ucast_flood and b53_port_set_mcast_flood since UC_FLOOD_MASK, MC_FLOOD_MASK and IPMC_FLOOD_MASK don't exist.
