We should not be unconditionally enabling address learning, since doing that is actively detrimential when a port is standalone and not offloading a bridge. Namely, if a port in the switch is standalone and others are offloading the bridge, then we could enter a situation where we learn an address towards the standalone port, but the bridged ports could not forward the packet there, because the CPU is the only path between the standalone and the bridged ports. The solution of course is to not enable address learning unless the bridge asks for it. We need to set up the initial port flags for no learning and flooding everything, and also when the port joins and leaves the bridge. The flood configuration was already configured ok for standalone mode in ocelot_init, we just need to disable learning in ocelot_init_port.

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.
