The patch fixes a real oversight in the forwarding database management stuff.

A couple of minor tweaks.
 1. Always update used value but don't change 'updated' value unless changed.
 2. Rename notify flag to modified
 3. Add some whitespace.


From: roopa <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com>

Current bridge fdb update code does not seem to update the port
during fdb update. This patch adds a check for fdb dst (port)
change during fdb update. Also rearranges the call to
fdb_notify to send only one notification for create and update.

Changelog:
v2 - Change notify flag to bool
