It might not hurt to add comments which explain what these registers do.

Documentation/networking/switchdev.rst says:

When the bridge has VLAN filtering enabled and a PVID is not configured on the
ingress port, untagged and 802.1p tagged packets must be dropped. When the bridge
has VLAN filtering enabled and a PVID exists on the ingress port, untagged and
priority-tagged packets must be accepted and forwarded according to the
bridge's port membership of the PVID VLAN. When the bridge has VLAN filtering
disabled, the presence/lack of a PVID should not influence the packet
forwarding decision.

Anyway, I suppose Linus can make that adjustment after the fact too, if
everything else is ok in the other patches.
