The current procedure for installing a multicast address is hardcoded
for IPv4. But, in the ocelot hardware, there are 3 different procedures
for IPv4, IPv6 and for regular L2 multicast.

For IPv6 (33-33-xx-xx-xx-xx), it's the same as for IPv4
(01-00-5e-xx-xx-xx), except that the destination port mask is stuffed
into first 2 bytes of the MAC address except into first 3 bytes.

For plain Ethernet multicast, there's no port-in-address stuffing going
on, instead the DEST_IDX (pointer to PGID) is used there, just as for
unicast. So we have to use one of the nonreserved multicast PGIDs that
the hardware has allocated for this purpose.

This patch classifies the type of multicast address based on its first
bytes, then redirects to one of the 3 different hardware procedures.

Note that this gives us a really better way of redirecting PTP frames
sent at 01-1b-19-00-00-00 to the CPU. Previously, Yangbo Lu tried to add
a trapping rule for PTP EtherType but got a lot of pushback:

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/20190813025214.18601-5-yangbo.lu@nxp.com/

But right now, that isn't needed at all. The application stack (ptp4l)
does this for the PTP multicast addresses it's interested in (which are
configurable, and include 01-1b-19-00-00-00):

memset(&mreq, 0, sizeof(mreq));
mreq.mr_ifindex = index;
mreq.mr_type = PACKET_MR_MULTICAST;
mreq.mr_alen = MAC_LEN;
memcpy(mreq.mr_address, addr1, MAC_LEN);

err1 = setsockopt(fd, SOL_PACKET, PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq,
sizeof(mreq));

Into the kernel, this translates into a dev_mc_add on the switch network
interfaces, and our drivers know that it means they should translate it
into a host MDB address (make the CPU port be the destination).
Previously, this was broken because all mdb addresses were treated as
IPv4 (which 01-1b-19-00-00-00 obviously is not).

H A Docelot.c584b7cfc Tue Jan 19 08:06:38 CST 2021 Alban Bedel <alban.bedel@aerq.com> net: mscc: ocelot: Fix multicast to the CPU port

Multicast entries in the MAC table use the high bits of the MAC
address to encode the ports that should get the packets. But this port
mask does not work for the CPU port, to receive these packets on the
CPU port the MAC_CPU_COPY flag must be set.

Because of this IPv6 was effectively not working because neighbor
solicitations were never received. This was not apparent before commit
9403c158 (net: mscc: ocelot: support IPv4, IPv6 and plain Ethernet mdb
entries) as the IPv6 entries were broken so all incoming IPv6
multicast was then treated as unknown and flooded on all ports.

To fix this problem rework the ocelot_mact_learn() to set the
MAC_CPU_COPY flag when a multicast entry that target the CPU port is
added. For this we have to read back the ports endcoded in the pseudo
MAC address by the caller. It is not a very nice design but that avoid
changing the callers and should make backporting easier.
