David S. Miller 9096643856 Merge branch 'bridge-ext-learned-entries'
Nikolay Aleksandrov says

====================
net: bridge: allow user-space to add ext learned entries

This set adds the ability to add externally learned entries from
user-space. For symmetry and proper function we need to allow SW entries
to take over HW learned ones (similar to how HW can take over SW entries
currently) which is needed for our use case (evpn) where we have pure SW
ports and HW ports mixed in a single bridge. This does not play well with
switchdev devices currently because there's no feedback when the entry is
taken over, but this case has never worked anyway and feedback can be
easily added when needed.
Patch 02 simply allows to use NTF_EXT_LEARNED from user-space, we already
have Quagga patches that make use of this functionality.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
