I wrote a similar patch a few years ago:
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/bridge/2006-September/005046.html
This patch also added the possibility to define a native vlan for each
port and for the bridge port itself - is there any interest in this
feature as well as the filtering?

Adds an optional infrustructure component to bridge that would allow
native vlan filtering in the bridge. Each bridge port (as well
as the bridge device) now get a VLAN bitmap. Each bit in the bitmap
is associated with a vlan id. This way if the bit corresponding to
the vid is set in the bitmap that the packet with vid is allowed to
enter and exit the port.
Write access the bitmap is protected by RTNL and read access
protected by RCU.

You seem to use vlans_to_port/vlans_to_bridge only to get at
vlan_info. Maybe that could be abstracted to a single interface, or
even change v->parent to be a 'net_port_vlans **'?
