Please could you expand this description.

If the address is multicast, it means it should be considered as a management frame, and given priority override. But what exactly are we interested in here? The old code looked like it wanted to match on static unicast entries. Your change will make it match on static and dynamic unicast? Do we want dynamic as well? Why is the fix not this? > - if (state == MV88E6XXX_G1_ATU_DATA_STATE_UC_STATIC) > + if (is_unicast_ether_addr(addr) && state == MV88E6XXX_G1_ATU_DATA_STATE_UC_STATIC) which fixes the problem you describe in the commit message. Thanks Andrew

The same state value of an ATU entry can mean different states, depending on the entry's address type. Check for its address type instead of state, to determine if its portvec should be overridden.
