Hi Florian

Shouldn't this bridge port mask also be dependent on bridge?

I'm thinking of cases like

brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 lan0
brctl addif br0 lan1

brctl addbr br1
brctl addif br1 lan2
brctl addif br1 lan3

We have two software bridges, so need two masks.  It does look like
your hardware and the Marvell hardware supports this, disjoint sets of
bridged ports.  But with the current implementation, your going to end
up with one hardware bridge with four ports, and broken STP.
