Title:
  [saucy] [armhf] [calxeda] add mac address learning capabilities

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  Impact: Calxeda xgmac must learn secondary mac addresses such as those
  behind a bridge in order to properly receive packets with those mac
  addresses.

  Fix: apply the attached patch and recompile a kernel

  Test: add a patched and an unpatched instances to a bridge and then do

  "bridge fdb show"

  on both of them and see the difference - on the patched instance
  you'll see all the mac addresses behind the bridge, while you won't
  see them in the unpatched one.
