No bridge, why create a bridge? And even if you do, why add lan5 to it?
The expectation is that standalone ports still remain functional when
other ports join a bridge.

I was saying:

ip link set lan1 up
ip link add link lan1 name lan1.5 type vlan id 5
ip addr add 192.168.100.1/24 dev lan1.5 && ip link set lan1.5 up
iperf3 -c 192.168.100.2
