Subject: [PATCH 1/5] bridge: Fix IPv6 multicast snooping by storing correct protocol type

The protocol type for IPv6 entries in the hash table for multicast
bridge snooping is falsely set to ETH_P_IP, marking it as an IPv4
address, instead of setting it to ETH_P_IPV6, which results in negative
look-ups in the hash table later.
