Humm, there must be something obvious I am missing, but the following
don't exactly result in what I would expect after adding a check for
vlan->flags & BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_BRENTRY:

brctl addbr br0
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/vlan_filtering
brctl addif br0 lan1

#1 results in lan1 being programmed with VID 1, PVID, untagged, but not
the CPU port. I would have sort of expected that the bridge layer would
also push the configuration to br0/CPU port since this is the default VLAN:

bridge vlan show dev br0
port	vlan ids
br0	1 PVID Egress Untagged

But it does not.

bridge vlan add vid 2 dev lan1

#2 same thing, results in only lan1 being programmed with VID 2, tagged
but that is expected because we are creating the VLAN only for the
user-facing port.

bridge vlan add vid 3 dev br0 self

#3 results in the CPU port being programmed with VID 3, tagged, again,
this is expected because we are only programming the bridge master/CPU
port here.

Does #1 also happen for cpsw and mlxsw or do you actually get events
about the bridge's default VLAN configuration? Or does the switch driver
actually need to obtain that at the time the port is enslaved somehow?

Thanks!
