Subject: Re: [PATCH] bridge: netlink: check vlan_default_pvid range

Could we return an error (-EINVAL) to userspace instead?  Silently
disabling the feature seems confusing to me.  This would probably be
better in br_validate() (like the IFLA_BR_VLAN_PROTOCOL check), since
there's already such a check when setting default_pvid from sysfs (in
br_vlan_set_default_pvid()).

You'll also need to add a Signed-off-by, and a Fixes tag would be nice.
