These error messages can happen under quite normal use with your hardware.
For example:

ip link add br0 type bridge && ip link set br0 master br0
bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05 vid 1 master static
bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05 vid 2 master static
bridge fdb del dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05 vid 2 master static
bridge fdb del dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05 vid 1 master static

Because the driver ignores the VID, then as soon as the VID 2 FDB entry
is removed, the VID 1 FDB entry doesn't exist anymore, either.

The above is a bit artificial. More practically, the bridge installs
local FDB entries (MAC address of bridge device, MAC addresses of ports)
once in the VLAN-unaware database (VID 0), and once per VLAN installed
on br0.

When the MAC address of br0 is different from that of the ports, and it
is changed by the user, you'll get these errors too, since those changes
translate into a deletion of the old local FDB entries (installed as FDB
entries towards the CPU port). Do you want the users to see them and
think something is wrong?  I mean, something _is_ wrong (the hardware),
but you have to work with that somehow.
