Subject: [PATCH] bridge: add knob for filtering rx/tx BPDU packets on a port
Some devices (e.g. wireless APs) can't have devices behind them be part of
a bridge topology with redundant links, due to address limitations.
Additionally, broadcast traffic on these devices is somewhat expensive, due to
the low data rate and wakeups of clients in powersave mode.
This knob can be used to ensure that BPDU packets are never sent or forwarded
to/from these devices
