Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/5] rocker: enable by default untagged VLAN support

From: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@...il.com>

This patch set is a followup to Simon Horman's RFC patch:

   [PATCH/RFC net-next] rocker: by default accept untagged packets

Now, on port probe, we install untagged VLAN (vid=0) support for each port
as the default.  This is equivalent to the command:

   bridge vlan add vid 0 dev DEV self

Accepting untagged VLAN pkts is a reasonable default, but the user could
override this with:

   bridge vlan del vid 0 dev DEV self

With this, we no longer need 8021q module to install vid=0 when port interface
opens.  In fact, we don't need support for legacy VLAN ndo ops at all since
they're superseded by bridge_setlink/dellink.  So remove legacy VLAN ndo ops
support in driver.  (The legacy VLAN ndo ops are supported by bonding/team
drivers, but don't fit into the transaction model offered by switchdev, so
switching all VLAN functions to bridge_setlink/dellink switchdev support gets
us stacked driver + transaction model support).

Scott Feldman (5):
  rocker: zero allocate ports array
  rocker: cleanup vlan table on error adding vlan
  rocker: install untagged VLAN (vid=0) support for each port
  rocker: install/remove router MAC for untagged VLAN when
    joining/leaving bridge
  rocker: remove support for legacy VLAN ndo ops
