I now understood what you were referring to above a bit better.
This patch solves just part of the problem. The other part is what
happens when someone behind the bridge is using vlan tagging without
the bridge being aware of it and expects the bridge to forward such traffic.
So, if we ever want to disable promiscuous mode on the bridge ports, we
either need to depend on lan filtering being configured in the bridge
or have the ability to disable vlan filtering in the driver.
Neither is really a good thing. I'll need to think about this.
