I see that you return -EOPNOTSUPP from drivers in case of unsupported
flags. I believe this is problematic (I'll test soon). The same return
code is used by:

1. Switch drivers to indicate unsupported flags
2. switchdev code to indicate unsupported netdev (no switchdev ops)

I guess that with this patch any attempt to set bridge port flags on
veth/dummy device will result in an error.
