By default, the switch does not flood broadcast frames. Instead the
broadcast address is unknown in the ATU, so the frame gets forwarded
out the cpu port. The software bridge then floods it back to the
individual switch ports which are members of the bridge.

Add an ATU entry in the switch so that it floods broadcast frames out
ports, rather than have the software bridge do it. Also, send a copy
out the cpu port and any dsa ports. Rely on the port vectors to
prevent broadcast frames leaking between bridges, and separated ports.

Additionally, when a VLAN is added, a new FID is allocated.  This
represents a new table of ATU entries. A broadcast entry is added to
the new FID.

With offload_fwd_mark being set, the software bridge will not flood
the frames it receives back to the switch.
