[ Upstream commit ad53f5f54f351e967128edbc431f0f26427172cf ]
The very first flush in any port will flush all learned addresses in all
ports. This can be observed by unplugging the cable from one port while
additional ports are connected and dumping the fdb entries.
This problem is caused by the initially wrong value programmed to the
REG_SW_LUE_CTRL_1 register. Setting SW_FLUSH_STP_TABLE and
SW_FLUSH_MSTP_TABLE bits does not have an immediate effect. It is when
ksz9477_flush_dyn_mac_table() is called then the SW_FLUSH_STP_TABLE bit
takes effect and flushes all learned entries. After that call both bits
are reset and so the next port flush will not cause such problem again.

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 Restructured Text 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.
