As part of transition to unified bridge model, many different firmware configurations are done. Some of the configuration that needs to be done for the unified bridge model is not valid under the legacy model, and would be rejected by the firmware. At the same time, the driver cannot switch to the unified bridge model until all of the code has been converted. To allow breaking the change into patches, and to not break driver behavior during the transition, add a boolean variable to indicate bridge model. Then, forbidden configurations will be skipped using the check - "if (!mlxsw_sp->ubridge)". The new variable is temporary for several sets, it will be removed when firmware will be configured to work with unified bridge model.

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.
