Do not offload IGMP/MLD messages as it could lead to IGMP/MLD Reports
being unintentionally flooded to Hosts. Instead, let the bridge decide
where to send these IGMP/MLD messages.
Consider the case where the local host is sending out reports in response
to a remote querier like the following:
mcast-listener-process (IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP)
\
br0
/ \
swp1 swp2
| |
QUERIER SOME-OTHER-HOST
In the above setup, br0 will want to br_forward() reports for
mcast-listener-process's group(s) via swp1 to QUERIER; but since the
source hwdom is 0, the report is eligible for tx offloading, and is
flooded by hardware to both swp1 and swp2, reaching SOME-OTHER-HOST as
well. (Example and illustration provided by Tobias.)
