Subject: [PATCH] bridge: handle process all link-local frames

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508008

Any frame addressed to link-local addresses should be processed by local
receive path. The earlier code would process them only if STP was enabled.
Since there are other frames like LACP for bonding, we should always
process them.

Finally had time to give it a better reading. Ok, so the whole part is inside of
a case for the local link destination. Which matches description and looks sensible.

Removes the STP condition for netfilter hook processing. Code corresponds to
description and is already confirmed to fix the problem by the bug reporter.
