OK, I'll do it for you then, I am surprised you dont understand my
review / suggestion.

One patch submitter is supposed to followup and send a new version to
take into account reviews/comments, not wait that eventually everybody
says "OK, lets take it as is"


[PATCH] bridge: provide a cow_metrics method for fake_ops

Like in commit 0972ddb237 (provide cow_metrics() methods to blackhole
dst_ops), we must provide a cow_metrics for bridges fake_dst_ops as
well.

This fixes a regression coming from commits 62fa8a846d7d (net: Implement
read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics.) and 33eb9873a28 (bridge:
initialize fake_rtable metrics)
