Hi Florian
i forget the details, but there are some difference between VLAN
filtering being disabled at compile time, and disabled at runtime. I
think the expected behaviour is the same, but the switchdev API usage
is slightly different.

224.0.0.X/32 should always be flooded, IGMP is optional for those
groups in the local subnet.
