Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] net: bridge: factorize MDB new and del functions

The br_mdb.c file implements both br_mdb_add and br_mdb_del functions, to
handle respectively the RTM_NEWMDB and RTM_DELMDB message types.

But these two functions are really similar. This patch series factorizes
them into a single br_mdb_do rtnl_doit_func function to reduce
boilerplate and simplify the MDB handling code.

Vivien Didelot (6):
  net: bridge: pass net_bridge_port to __br_mdb_add
  net: bridge: check multicast bridge only once
  net: bridge: break if __br_mdb_del fails
  net: bridge: add __br_mdb_do
  net: bridge: get msgtype from nlmsghdr in mdb ops
  net: bridge: add br_mdb_do
