That is pretty odd. What about listening, learning, blocking?

This looks suspiciously empty? Don't you need to tell the hardware
which ports this port is bridges to? Normally you see some code which
walks all the ports and finds those in the same bridge, and sets a bit
which allows these ports to talk to each other. Is that code somewhere
else?
