Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 105/118] bridge: mdb: fix double add notification

3.16.7-ckt16 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@...ulusnetworks.com>

commit 5ebc784625ea68a9570d1f70557e7932988cd1b4 upstream.

Since the mdb add/del code was introduced there have been 2 br_mdb_notify
calls when doing br_mdb_add() resulting in 2 notifications on each add.

Example:
 Command: bridge mdb add dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
 Before patch:
 root@...ian:~# bridge monitor all
 [MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
 [MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent

 After patch:
 root@...ian:~# bridge monitor all
 [MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
