[Bridge] [PATCH] bridge: Cannot communicate with brX when its MAC address is changed

[Koki Sanagi]

When the MAC address of a bridge interface is changed, it cannot communicate
with others. Because Whether or not a packet should be transferred to bridge
interface depends on whether or not dst of a packet is in fdb and is_local=y.
If we change MAC address of a bridge interface, it isn't in fdb.

This patch adds an condition that dst of a packet matches MAC address of
a bridge interface to the conventional condition.
