No, they need to treat it very differently.
A PORT_MDB says that frames for a group should be sent out that port.
So it probably needs to iterate all the ports in the bridge and add a
match/action to each port saying frames coming in for that group
should be sent out the port listed in the PORT_MDB.
A HOST_MDB say that frames for a group coming in from the port listed
in the HOST_MDB must be sent to the host. The match/action applies
directly to the port, other ports are not involved.
