I think that the sticky flag topic generally is beyond the MAB feature, 
and it doesn't really fit into the bridge_locked_port.sh.
But anyhow I guess I can add it to the bridge_sticky_fdb.sh tests.

The problem here is that the "blackhole" flag can only be set now from 
the mv88e6xxx driver under a locked port, and the locked port itself 
will not allow ping to work anyhow without a FDB entry free of the 
"locked" flag, as the MAB tests verify.
And disabling MAB on the locked port on the mv88e6xxx will clean the 
locked entries.

So I see it as a flag for future use, otherwise I will have to add a 
userspace command to enable the "blackhole" flag.


I have now made station move tests for both the locked port and MAB 
cases.
