Hi,
Could you please rather update the EOPNOTSUPP helpers to set these infos to 0 before
returning? Someone else might decide to use them and hit the same bug.

E.g.
static inline int br_cfm_mep_count(struct net_bridge *br, u32 *count)
{
*count = 0;
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
}

We already do the same for br_allowed_ingress, nbp_vlan_add() etc.

Thanks,
Nik
