Yeah I understand, it takes some time to figure out how these switches 
really behave... :-)

You have Vladimir's Reviewed-by: tag so I guess this change is OK from 
the maintainer's perspective.

Generally speaking I don't think that the patches you have sent for 66RB 
are particularly relevant for the 65MB because the register layout and 
some chip semantics are totally different. Regarding CPU port learning 
for the RTL8365MB chip: right now I am playing around with the "third 
way" Vladimir suggested, by enabling learning selectively only for 
bridge-layer packets (skb->offload_fwd_mark == true). To begin with I'm 
not even sure if you have this capability with the RTL8366RB.
