net: dsa: flood multicast to CPU when slave has IFF_PROMISC
Certain DSA switches can eliminate flooding to the CPU when none of the ports have the IFF_ALLMULTI or IFF_PROMISC flags set. This is done by synthesizing a call to dsa_port_bridge_flags() for the CPU port, a call which normally comes from the bridge driver via switchdev. The bridge port flags and IFF_PROMISC|IFF_ALLMULTI have slightly different semantics, and due to inattention/lack of proper testing, the IFF_PROMISC flag allows unknown unicast to be flooded to the CPU, but not unknown multicast. This must be fixed by setting both BR_FLOOD (unicast) and BR_MCAST_FLOOD in the synthesized dsa_port_bridge_flags() call, since IFF_PROMISC means that packets should not be filtered regardless of their MAC DA.
