4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mike Manning <mmann...@brocade.com>
[ Upstream commit 8953de2f02ad7b15e4964c82f9afd60f128e4e98 ]
Even with multicast flooding turned off, IPv6 ND should still work so
that IPv6 connectivity is provided. Allow this by continuing to flood
multicast traffic originated by us.
Fixes: b6cb5ac8331b ("net: bridge: add per-port multicast flood flag")
