Jakub Kicinski c1bc6d2178 Merge branch 'bridge-handle-changes-in-vlan_flag_bridge_binding'
Petr Machata says:

====================
bridge: Handle changes in VLAN_FLAG_BRIDGE_BINDING

When bridge binding is enabled on a VLAN netdevice, its link state should
track bridge ports that are members of the corresponding VLAN. This works
for a newly-added netdevices. However toggling the option does not have the
effect of enabling or disabling the behavior as appropriate.

In this patchset, have bridge react to bridge_binding toggles on VLAN
uppers.

There has been another attempt at supporting this behavior in 2022 by
Sevinj Aghayeva [0]. A discussion ensued that informed how this new
patchset is constructed, namely that the logic is in the bridge as opposed
to the 8021q driver, and the bridge reacts to NETDEV_CHANGE events on the
8021q upper.

Patches #1 and #2 contain the implementation, patches #3 and #4 a
selftest.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
