IIRC, in the past David asked to either not send the uAPI files or send
them as a first patch which he then uses as a hint to sync the files
himself.

This is a separate change. Make one patch for the MAB option and another
for the new "locked" FDB flag.

I believe this belongs with the "blackhole" patch.

These a separate flags and need to be dumped independently. The fact
that MAB can only be enabled when the port is locked is enforced by the
kernel.

This is a high level description of the option, but it is missing the
part that ties it to the "locked" FDB entries.

Speaking of which, the "locked" flag needs to be described in
man/man8/bridge.8 (in a different patch)

Why not just copy-paste the previous description?
