No worry, the last way is just make net/forwarding/lib.sh not source net/lib.sh :)
Although this would make us copy a lot functions from net/forwarding/lib.sh to
source net/lib.sh. So before that, let's try if we can

Move all the dsa tests back to net/forwarding (actually only needed for
test_bridge_fdb_stress.sh). And add a forwarding.config.dsa.sample. Maybe
a test list for dsa testing. But with this way the dsa testing will not
able to run via run_kselftest.sh.

Or, we can remove the symlinks, and add the dsa tests with exec the relative
forwarding path's tests directly. e.g.

### in das test folder

$ cat bridge_mld.sh
#!/bin/bash
../../../net/forwarding/bridge_mld.sh

$ cat Makefile
# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ OR MIT

TEST_PROGS = \
        bridge_mld.sh

TEST_SH_LIBS := \
        net/lib.sh \
        net/forwarding/lib.sh \
        net/forwarding/bridge_mld.sh

TEST_FILES := forwarding.config

include ../../../lib.mk

### for net/forwarding/lib.sh looks we need source the ${PWD}/forwarding.config if run via run_kselftest.sh

if [[ -f ${PWD}/forwarding.config ]]; then
        source "$PWD/forwarding.config"
elif [[ -f $relative_path/forwarding.config ]]; then
        source "$relative_path/forwarding.config"
fi

What do you think?
