+ bridge: apply multicast snooping to IPv6 link-local, too
+
+ The multicast snooping code should have matured enough to be safely
+ applicable to IPv6 link-local multicast addresses (excluding the
+ link-local all nodes address, ff02::1), too.

+
+ bridge: prevent flooding IPv6 packets that do not have a listener
+
+ Currently if there is no listener for a certain group then IPv6 packets
+ for that group are flooded on all ports, even though there might be no
+ host and router interested in it on a port.
+
+ With this commit they are only forwarded to ports with a multicast
+ router.
+
+ Just like commit bd4265fe36 ("bridge: Only flood unregistered groups
+ to routers") did for IPv4, let's do the same for IPv6 with the same
+ reasoning.

+
+ bridge: separate querier and query timer into IGMP/IPv4 and MLD/IPv6 ones
+
+ Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there
+ is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would
+ possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is
+ because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier
+ is present that the other one is present, too.
+
+ This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in
+ "bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b04)
+ to also work if there is either just an IGMP or an MLD querier on the
+ link: It refines the deactivation of the snooping to be protocol
+ specific by using separate timers for the snooped IGMP and MLD queries
+ as well as separate timers for our internal IGMP and MLD queriers.

+
+ bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier
+
+ If there is no querier on a link then we won't get periodic reports and
+ therefore won't be able to learn about multicast listeners behind ports,
+ potentially leading to lost multicast packets, especially for multicast
+ listeners that joined before the creation of the bridge.
+
+ These lost multicast packets can appear since c5c23260594
+ ("bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default")
+ in particular.
+
+ With this patch we are flooding multicast packets if our querier is
+ disabled and if we didn't detect any other querier.
+
+ A grace period of the Maximum Response Delay of the querier is added to
+ give multicast responses enough time to arrive and to be learned from
+ before disabling the flooding behaviour again.

+
+ bridge: use the bridge IP addr as source addr for querier
+
+ Quote from Adam:
+ "If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0
+ as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices
+ then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't
+ be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and
+ having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution
+ (provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it
+ sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a
+ device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is
+ required to perform any other routing functions."
+
+ And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.
