I remembered why we had the host FDB migration procedure in place. It is true that host FDB entry migration can be done by changing the value of PGID_CPU, but the problem is that only host FDB entries learned while operating in NPI mode go to PGID_CPU. When the CPU port operates in tag_8021q mode, the FDB entries are learned towards the unicast PGID equal to the physical port number of this CPU port, bypassing the PGID_CPU indirection. So host FDB entries learned in tag_8021q mode are not migrated any longer towards the NPI port. Fix this by extracting the NPI port -> PGID_CPU redirection from the ocelot switch lib, moving it to the Felix DSA driver, and applying it for any CPU port regardless of its kind (NPI or tag_8021q).

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.
