DSA now explicitly handles VLANs installed with the 'self' flag on the
bridge as host VLANs, instead of just replicating every bridge port VLAN
also on the CPU port and never deleting it, which is what it did before.
However, this leaves a corner case uncovered, as explained by
Tobias Waldekranz:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20220209213044.2353153-6-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/#24735260
Forwarding towards a bridge port VLAN installed on a bridge port foreign
to DSA (separate NIC, Wi-Fi AP) used to work by virtue of the fact that
DSA itself needed to have at least one port in that VLAN (therefore, it
also had the CPU port in said VLAN). However, now that the CPU port may
not be member of all VLANs that user ports are members of, we need to
ensure this isn't the case if software forwarding to a foreign interface
is required.
The solution is to treat bridge port VLANs on standalone interfaces in
the exact same way as host VLANs. From DSA's perspective, there is no
difference between local termination and software forwarding; packets in
that VLAN must reach the CPU in both cases.
