for me, stuff that was accepted in net-next and openwrt main doesnt need a further review by gluon maintainers, it's only a question about whether we want to backport it.
i'd say yes.

I did have to make some changes to the patches for 5.15, but yes, the main question is whether we want the backport.

Is there a reason to track this backport downstream and not in the OpenWrt repo? Seems like something that's not gluon specific.

Otherwise it seems justifiable to backport it.

Arguably it's a breaking change, so I'd rather not backport it to OpenWrt stable branches.

From my understanding bridge port isolation is only enabled if that setting has been enabled and AFAIK it's not by default in openwrt (only gluon enables it by default).
Therefore it should only break stuff if a user enabled it in the past, forgot about it and then it suddenly starts working. That doesn't really seem like a problem openwrt should care about.

The first patch affects all drivers, not just those that actually support the offloading; it also doesn't only affect port isolation, but also other bridge flags. It's difficult to say what the exact effects might be.

let's test in master, we can revert later if we have issues with this

@neocturne i suggest you try you build and if necessary refresh patch with current master branch and merge it youself
