+Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: clear bridge's private skb space on xmit
+
+We need to clear all of the bridge private skb variables as they can be
+stale due to the packet being recirculated through the stack and then
+transmitted through the bridge device. Similar memset is already done on
+bridge's input. We've seen cases where proxyarp_replied was 1 on routed
+multicast packets transmitted through the bridge to ports with neigh
+suppress which were getting dropped. Same thing can in theory happen with
+the port isolation bit as well.
+
+Fixes: 821f1b21cabb ("bridge: add new BR_NEIGH_SUPPRESS port flag to suppress arp and nd flood")
