Why? I keep seeing this from Microchip engineers. Having two
VLAN-unaware bridges on different sets of ports is a perfectly valid use
case. On Ocelot I took the driver from a state where it had an identical
implementation to yours and I made it handle multiple bridges. I don't
see where's the problem.
