The ocelot switchdev driver does not include the CPU port in the list of
flooding destinations for unknown traffic, instead that traffic is
supposed to match FDB entries to reach the CPU.
The addresses it installs are:
(a) the station MAC address, in ocelot_probe_port() and later during
runtime in ocelot_port_set_mac_address(). These are the VLAN-unaware
addresses. The VLAN-aware addresses are in ocelot_vlan_vid_add().
(b) multicast addresses added with dev_mc_add() (not bridge host MDB
entries) in ocelot_mc_sync()
(c) multicast destination MAC addresses for MRP in ocelot_mrp_save_mac(),
to make sure those are dropped (not forwarded) by the bridging
service, just trapped to the CPU
So we can see that the logic is slightly buggy ever since the initial
commit a556c76adc ("net: mscc: Add initial Ocelot switch support").
This is because, when ocelot_probe_port() runs, the port pvid is 0.
Then we join a VLAN-aware bridge, the pvid becomes 1, we call
ocelot_port_set_mac_address(), this learns the new MAC address in VID 1
(also fails to forget the old one, since it thinks it's in VID 1, but
that's not so important). Then when we leave the VLAN-aware bridge,
outside world is unable to ping our new MAC address because it isn't
learned in VID 0, the VLAN-unaware pvid.
[ note: this is strictly based on static analysis, I don't have hardware
to test. But there are also many more corner cases ]
The basic idea is that we should have a separation of concerns, and the
FDB entries used for standalone operation should be managed by the
driver, and the FDB entries used by the bridging service should be
managed by the bridge. So the standalone and VLAN-unaware bridge FDB
entries should not follow the bridge PVID, because that will only be
active when the bridge is VLAN-aware. So since the port pvid is
coincidentally zero during probe time, just make those entries
statically go to VID 0.

NXP Legal insists that the following are not fine:
- Saying "NXP Semiconductors" instead of "NXP", since the company's
registered name is "NXP"
- Putting a "(c)" sign in the copyright string
- Putting a comma in the copyright string
The only accepted copyright string format is "Copyright <year-range> NXP".
This patch changes the copyright headers in the networking files that
were sent by me, or derived from code sent by me.

Now that the driver will always be notified that the role is deleted
before the ring is deleted, then we don't need to duplicate the logic of
cleaning the resources also in the delete function.

When a MRP ring was deleted or disabled, the driver was iterating over
the ports to detect if any other MPR rings exists and in case it didn't
exist it would delete the MAC table entry. But the problem was that it
used the last iterated port to delete the MAC table entry and this could
be a NULL port.
The fix consists of using the port on which the function was called.

This patch extends MRP support for Ocelot. It allows to have multiple
rings and when the node has the MRC role it forwards MRP Test frames in
HW. For MRM there is no change.

Add basic support for MRP. The HW will just trap all MRP frames on the
ring ports to CPU and allow the SW to process them. In this way it is
possible to for this node to behave both as MRM and MRC.
Current limitations are:
- it doesn't support Interconnect roles.
- it supports only a single ring.
- the HW should be able to do forwarding of MRP Test frames so the SW
will not need to do this. So it would be able to have the role MRC
without SW support.
