The following series is a submission for net-next to allow
embedded switches and other stacked devices other then the
Linux bridge to manage a forwarding database.

Previously posted and discussed here,

http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2012/03/19/26

Sorry for the thrash on v2 this version resolves the macvlan
patch 8/8 to fix a dev_set_promiscuity() error and add the
flags field to change and get link routines.

v2 addressed feedback from Ben Hutchings resolving a typo
in the multicast add/del routines and improving the error
handling when both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER are set.

As always thanks for the feedback and any comments welcom.
I've tested this with 'br' tool published by Stephen Hemminger
soon to be renamed 'bridge' I believe and various traffic
generators mostly pktgen, ping, and netperf.

Thanks!
John
