From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 110e847ca7d5e712cabc8cb866a66b629832f4a2 ] I have no idea why this code is here, but I have 2 hypotheses: 1. A desperate attempt to keep untagged traffic working when the bridge deletes the pvid on a port. There was a fairly okay discussion here: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CA+h21hrRMrLH-RjBGhEJSTZd6_QPRSd3RkVRQF-wNKkrgKcRSA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/#t which established that in vlan_filtering=1 mode, the absence of a pvid should denote that the ingress port should drop untagged and priority tagged traffic. While in vlan_filtering=0 mode, nothing should change. So in vlan_filtering=1 mode, we should simply let things happen, and not attempt to save the day. And in vlan_filtering=0 mode, the pvid is 0 anyway, no need to do anything. 2. The driver encodes the native VLAN (ocelot_port->vid) value of 0 as special, meaning "not valid". There are checks based on that. But there are no such checks for the ocelot_port->pvid value of 0. In fact, that's a perfectly valid value, which is used in standalone mode. Maybe there was some confusion and the author thought that 0 means "invalid" here as well. In conclusion, delete the code*. *in fact we'll add it back later, in a slightly different form, but for an entirely different reason than the one for which this exists now.
