Yotam says:
Similarly to a bridged port, the bridge device itself can be configured by
the user to be an mrouter port. In this case, all multicast traffic should
be forwarded to it. Make the mlxsw Spectrum driver offload these directives
to the Spectrum hardware.
Patches 1 and 2 add a new switchdev notification for bridge device mrouter
port status and make the bridge module notify about it.
Patches 3-5 change the mlxsw Spectrum driver to handle these notifications
by adding the Spectrum router port to the bridge MDB entries.

distinguish between learning-on and learning-off states
