How dare you ;)

that starts sending some random IPv6 packets to

Should we return -EOPNOTUSPP such that this is not made fatal for DSA if
someone compiles its kernel with CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING disabled?

How you would feel about re-using br_mdb_switchdev_host_port() here and
pass a 'type' value that is neither RTM_NEWDB nor RTM_DELDB just so you
don't have to duplicate that code here and we ensure it is in sync?
