Done.

Done for non-nested case. Unavoidable for nested vlan tags.

Done.

It will work with drivers with hardware accel VLAN receive support if no
vlan device is attached to the network device of one of the ports of the
bridge. It will also work if a vlan device is attached to the bridge
device. In those cases, hw accel is not used.

However, it won't work if a vlan device is attached to the network
device of one of the ports. Hw accel will be used and the vlan tag won't
be available. Anyway, this is a bad idea since normal bridging won't work
either. The vlan won't be regenerated at bridge output since current
bridge code doesn't get that tag.

If the vlan device is attached to the bridge device then bridging has no
problems as hw accel receiving is not used.

The patch has also been generalized to support any number of vlan nested
tags. Vlan tag recording can be disabled at all if BR_MAX_VLAN_TAGS is
set to 0.

Subject: [PATCH] Add vlan tags to bridge forward database

This makes forwarding table aware of 802.1Q vlan tags and stores
vlan ids with MACs in the table.

It solves problems when having same MAC on diffent pairs
(vlan, port). Current code gets confused at that situation.

Nested vlan tags are also handled.

Local MACs are managed as present on every vlan.
