__IFLA_BRPORT_MAX is one larger than IFLA_BRPORT_MAX.  We pass
IFLA_BRPORT_MAX to nla_parse_nested() so we need IFLA_BRPORT_MAX + 1
elements.  Also Smatch complains that we read past the end of the array
when in br_set_port_flag() when it's called with IFLA_BRPORT_FAST_LEAVE.

Only needed in linux-next.

I know it's nitpicking but could you use IFLA_BRPORT_MAX+1 for
consistency?
