Subject: switchdev: Execute bridge ndos only for bridge ports
From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 97c242902c209e7d46e365335db5202634484dcb ]
We recently got the following warning after setting up a vlan device on
top of an offloaded bridge and executing 'bridge link':

The problem is that the 8021q module propagates the call to
ndo_bridge_getlink() via switchdev ops, but the switch driver doesn't
recognize the netdev, as it's not offloaded.
While we can ignore calls being made to non-bridge ports inside the
driver, a better fix would be to push this check up to the switchdev
layer.
Note that these ndos can be called for non-bridged netdev, but this only
happens in certain PF drivers which don't call the corresponding
switchdev functions anyway.
