The kernel intentionally does not allow forwarding of IEEE pause frames. These need to be handled dropped in the bridge. Any mask without bit 1 set should work. Originally LACP, STP and MACPAUSE frames were always blocked and could not be changed. The restriction was relaxed for LACP and STP frames.
