> The first patch prepares the forwarding path by having the exact packet
> type passed down so we can later filter based on it and the per-port
> unknown mcast flood flag introduced in the second patch. It is similar to
> how the per-port unknown unicast flood flag works.
> Nice side-effects of patch 01 are the slight reduction of tests in the
> fast-path and a few minor checkpatch fixes.
> 
> v3: don't change br_auto_mask as that will change user-visible behaviour
> v2: make pkt_type an enum as per Stephen's comment

Series applied, thanks Nikolay.
