Subject: [PATCH 3/13] bridge: Avoid unnecessary clone on forward path
bridge: Avoid unnecessary clone on forward path
When the packet is delivered to the local bridge device we may
end up cloning it unnecessarily if no bridge port can receive
the packet in br_flood.
This patch avoids this by moving the skb_clone into br_flood.
