Can't believe I missed this - thanks!

I think it might read a bit better if we model it like the hairpin check
above. I.e. (special_mode || regular_condition)

It's not really that the state is forwarding when mst is enabled, we
simply ignore the port-global state in that case.

so something like:

    ...
    (br_mst_is_enabled(p->br) || p->state == BR_STATE_FORWARDING) &&
    br_allowed_egress(vg, skb) && nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress(p, skb) &&
    ...
