Hi,

I'm not actually using MST, but I ran into this code and was wondering
if the static key usage is correct. The static key is global (not
per-bridge), so what happens when two bridges have MST enabled and then
it is disabled on one? I believe it would be disabled for both. If so,
maybe use static_branch_inc() / static_branch_dec() instead?

Thanks
