Is this patch a result of static analysis or has a real problem been
noticed? Could you make a more detailed analysis for me of the code path
in which the filter cannot be found? because I'm not seeing it.

Hint: follow felix_change_tag_protocol(), and see which things are
guaranteed to have succeeded if felix->tag_proto == DSA_TAG_PROTO_OCELOT_8021Q.

felix_tag_8021q_vlan_add() is called from dsa_tag_8021q_register(), and
felix_tag_8021q_vlan_del() from dsa_tag_8021q_unregister().

felix_vlan_filtering() runs under rtnl_lock(), and so does felix_change_tag_protocol().
So felix_vlan_filtering() is always executed either entirely before, or
entirely after felix_change_tag_protocol(), never concurrently.
