Subject: [PATCH iproute2 0/6] Clarifications to bridge man page

From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@....com>

There are several explanations missing in the bridge man page which have
led people in the past to make incorrect assumptions. Try to improve the
situation a little bit.

Vladimir Oltean (6):
  man8/bridge.8: document the "permanent" flag for "bridge fdb add"
  man8/bridge.8: document that "local" is default for "bridge fdb add"
  man8/bridge.8: explain what a local FDB entry is
  man8/bridge.8: fix which one of self/master is default for "bridge
    fdb"
  man8/bridge.8: explain self vs master for "bridge fdb add"
  man8/bridge.8: be explicit that "flood" is an egress setting
