Merge branch 'offload-software-learnt-bridge-addresses-to-dsa'

Vladimir Oltean says:

====================
Offload software learnt bridge addresses to DSA

This series tries to make DSA behave a bit more sanely when bridged with
"foreign" (non-DSA) interfaces and source address learning is not
supported on the hardware CPU port (which would make things work more
seamlessly without software intervention). When a station A connected to
a DSA switch port needs to talk to another station B connected to a
non-DSA port through the Linux bridge, DSA must explicitly add a route
for station B towards its CPU port.
