[PATCH 3.12 15/33] bridge: mdb: fix double add notification

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Tue Sep 15 2015 - 10:22:54 EST


From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 5ebc784625ea68a9570d1f70557e7932988cd1b4 ]

Since the mdb add/del code was introduced there have been 2 br_mdb_notify
calls when doing br_mdb_add() resulting in 2 notifications on each add.

Example:
Command: bridge mdb add dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
Before patch:
root@debian:~# bridge monitor all
[MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
[MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent

After patch:
root@debian:~# bridge monitor all
[MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
