If link-local learning is enabled on a locked port, I think those
addresses should also be learned with the BR_FDB_LOCKED flag. The
creation of those locked FDB entries can be further suppressed by the
BROPT_NO_LL_LEARN flag.

Yes, basically where this is placed right now (in br_handle_frame_finish):

	if (p->flags & BR_PORT_LOCKED) {
		struct net_bridge_fdb_entry *fdb_src =
			br_fdb_find_rcu(br, eth_hdr(skb)->h_source, vid);

		if (!fdb_src) {
			unsigned long flags = 0;

			if (p->flags & BR_PORT_MAB) {
			   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
			   except check for BR_LEARNING

				__set_bit(BR_FDB_LOCKED, &flags);
				br_fdb_update(br, p, eth_hdr(skb)->h_source,
					      vid, flags);
			}
			goto drop;
		} else if (READ_ONCE(fdb_src->dst) != p ||
			   test_bit(BR_FDB_LOCAL, &fdb_src->flags) ||
			   test_bit(BR_FDB_LOCKED, &fdb_src->flags)) {
			goto drop;
		}
	}
