+Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: switchdev: Don't drop packets between ports with
+ no hwdom
+
+nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress uses hwdom to determine whether or not a
+packet has already been forwarded to a hardware domain. For
+net_bridge_ports that aren't set up to use forward offloading, hwdom is
+set to 0. When both ingress and egress port have no hwdom,
+'cb->src_hwdom != p->hwdom' indicates that the packet is already known in
+the target domain - which it isn't - and the packet is wrongly dropped.
+
+The error was found on a bridge containing a wifi device and a VLAN
+tagging device (e.g. eth0.12). With VLAN filtering, this shouldn't happen.
+
+This patch adds a check for p->hwdom != 0 before comparing hardware
+domains to restore forwarding between ports with hwdom = 0.
+
+fwd_hwdoms are only set for ports with offloading enabled, which also
+implies a valid hwdom, so the check '!test_bit(p->hwdom, &cb->fwd_hwdoms)'
+doesn't fail in this way (yet - fingers crossed..) and it is left in place.
