Currently, FDB entries that are notified to the bridge driver via 'SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE' are always marked as offloaded by the bridge. With MAB enabled, this will no longer be universally true. Device drivers will report locked FDB entries to the bridge to let it know that the corresponding hosts required authorization, but it does not mean that these entries are necessarily programmed in the underlying hardware. We would like to solve it by having the bridge driver determine the offload indication based of the 'offloaded' bit in the FDB notification [1]. Prepare for that change by having rocker explicitly mark learned FDB entries as offloaded. This is consistent with all the other switchdev drivers.

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.
