Patch 1 limits the number of FDB records processed by the driver in a single session. This is useful in situations in which many new records need to be processed, thereby causing the RTNL mutex to be held for long periods of time. Patches 2-6 offload the learning configuration (on / off) of bridge ports to the device instead of having the driver decide whether a record needs to be learned or not. The last patch is fallout and removes configuration no longer necessary after the first patches are applied. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
