This patchset makes the mv88e6xxx driver perform flooding in hardware,
rather than let the software bridge perform the flooding. This is a
prerequisite for IGMP snooping on the bridge interface.

In order to make hardware broadcasting work, a few other issues need
fixing or improving. SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PARENT_ID is broken, which
is apparent when testing on the ZII devel board with multiple
switches.

Some of these patches are taken from a previous RFC patchset of IGMP
support. Hence the v2 comments...
