      mlxsw: spectrum: Flush FDB when leaving bridge · 039c49a6
      Ido Schimmel authored 
      As explained in previous commit, we should always take care of flushing
the FDB in the driver and not rely on bridge code.

We need to distinguish between two cases with regards to LAG:

1) Port is leaving LAG while LAG is bridged (or VLAN devices on top of
it). In this case don't flush the FDB entries pointing to the LAG ID, as
this will affect other ports still member in the LAG. Only flush the FDB
when the last port in the LAG is leaving the bridge.

2) LAG device is leaving the bridge. In this case the CHANGEUPPER event
is simply propagated to each member port, so make each port flush the
FDB in its turn.

Note that emptying a bridged LAG from ports creates an inconsistency
between hardware and software. A user who later (< ageing_time)
re-populates the LAG won't have any FDB entries pointing to the LAG ID
in hardware, but they will be present in the software bridge's FDB.
Currently there is no good solution to this problem, but this will be
addressed by us in the future.

In order to optimize the flushing process, flush by port or LAG ID if
there are no VLAN interfaces on top of the port. Otherwise, flush using
(Port / LAG ID, FID=VID} for each of the lower 4K FIDs. In the case of
VLAN device simply flush using {Port / LAG ID, vFID} with the vFID to
which the VLAN device is mapped to.

      mlxsw: reg: Add the Switch Filtering DB Flush register · 41933271
      Ido Schimmel authored 
      When removing a net device from a bridge we should flush the FDB entries
associated with this net device. Up until now, we relied upon bridge
code to do that for us, but it is possible for user to prevent hardware
from syncing with the software bridge (learning_sync=0), so we need to
flush overselves.

Add the Switch Filtering DB Flush (SFDF) register that is used to flush
FDB entries according to different parameters (per-port, per-FID etc).

      mlxsw: spectrum: Handle port leaving LAG while bridged · 4dc236c3
      Ido Schimmel authored 
      It is possible for a user to remove a port from a LAG device, while the
LAG device or VLAN devices on top of it are bridged. In these cases,
bridge's teardown sequence is never issued, so we need to take care of
it ourselves.

When LAG's unlinking event is received by port netdev:

1) Traverse its vPorts list and make those member in a bridge leave it.
   They will be deleted later by LAG code.

2) Make the port netdev itself leave its bridge if member in one.
