[PATCH net-next] net: dsa: add cross-chip multicast support

2017-06-15 Thread Vivien Didelot
Similarly to how cross-chip VLAN works, define a bitmap of multicast group members for a switch, now including its DSA ports, so that multicast traffic can be sent to all switches of the fabric. A switch may drop the frames if no user port is a member. This brings support for multicast in a multi
