You should either attached a bridge to a vlan device or stack a vlan
device on the bridge port depending on what you are trying to achieve.

The bridge handler takes all packets of the device that it is attached
to, so having a vlan also attached to the same device will not work.
You may get different results on older kernels depending on what NIC
you were using but that was a bug.
