No way, this is ridiculous. Changing the port like that for a notification is not
ok at all. It is also not the bridge's job to notify user-space for sticky fdbs
that are trying to roam, you already have some user-space app and you can catch
such fdbs by other means (sniffing, ebpf hooks, netfilter matching etc). Such
change can also lead to DDoS attacks with many notifications.
