[PATCH v3 net] mv88e6060: disable hardware level MAC learning

From: Anderson Luiz Alves
Date: Fri Nov 30 2018 - 19:01:14 EST


Disable hardware level MAC learning because it breaks station roaming.
When enabled it drops all frames that arrive from a MAC address
that is on a different port at learning table.
