No. mv88e6xxx_port_db_dump already exists, this is the function called
mv88e6xxx_port_db_dump_one multiple time. Here, _one refers to an FID
(forwarding database). 88E6352 have 4096 FIDs.

The way to dump a single FID is to run the ATU GetNext operation
starting with ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, until that same address is reached
again. This is what mv88e6xxx_port_db_dump_one does.

mv88e6xxx_port_db_dump first dump the port's assigned FID (i.e. VID 0),
then iterate on active VLANs to get and dump their FIDs.
