net: dsa: support FDB events on offloaded LAG interfaces
This change introduces support for installing static FDB entries towards
a bridge port that is a LAG of multiple DSA switch ports, as well as
support for filtering towards the CPU local FDB entries emitted for LAG
interfaces that are bridge ports.
Conceptually, host addresses on LAG ports are identical to what we do
for plain bridge ports. Whereas FDB entries _towards_ a LAG can't simply
be replicated towards all member ports like we do for multicast, or VLAN.
Instead we need new driver API. Hardware usually considers a LAG to be a
"logical port", and sets the entire LAG as the forwarding destination.
The physical egress port selection within the LAG is made by hashing
policy, as usual.
To represent the logical port corresponding to the LAG, we pass by value
a copy of the dsa_lag structure to all switches in the tree that have at
least one port in that LAG.
To illustrate why a refcounted list of FDB entries is needed in struct
dsa_lag, it is enough to say that:
- a LAG may be a bridge port and may therefore receive FDB events even
while it isn't yet offloaded by any DSA interface
- DSA interfaces may be removed from a LAG while that is a bridge port;
we don't want FDB entries lingering around, but we don't want to
remove entries that are still in use, either
For all the cases below to work, the idea is to always keep an FDB entry
on a LAG with a reference count equal to the DSA member ports. So:
- if a port joins a LAG, it requests the bridge to replay the FDB, and
the FDB entries get created, or their refcount gets bumped by one
- if a port leaves a LAG, the FDB replay deletes or decrements refcount
by one
- if an FDB is installed towards a LAG with ports already present, that
entry is created (if it doesn't exist) and its refcount is bumped by
the amount of ports already present in the LAG
