I should have said "actual"/"effective" instead of "correct". IMO, it's
better to use the same conditional in the both the data and control
paths to eliminate discrepancies. Without the patch, a user will see
that MST is supposedly enabled when it is actually disabled in the data
path.

The single user of br_mst_enabled() (DSA) is not affected by the bug
(only the SW data path is), so I suggest making this consolidation in
net-next after the bug is fixed. OK?
