Implement IFF_UNICAST_FLT on the bridge.  Unicast addresses added
to the bridge device are synched to the uplink devices.  This
allows for uplink devices to change while preserving mac assignment.

How is this different then calling the fdb op from rtnetlink.c when the
NTF_SELF bit is set after your previous patch

	net: generic fdb support for drivers without ndo_fdb_<op>

the generic routine gets called if a specific op is not supplied via
ndo ops anyways right?

Also I suspect if the driver supplies a specific ndo_fdb_<op> we should
use it over the generic one.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
John

The bridge provides the ndo_fdb_<add|del>, so it will be used.  The 
bridge op assumes that the dev passed to it is a port.  This code adds
support for when dev is the bridge.

In fact this patch is counting that rtnetlink will call into the bridge
and lets bridge do the work.
