+From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
+Subject: bridge: allow receiption on disabled port
+
+When an ethernet device is enslaved to a bridge, and the bridge STP
+detects loss of carrier (or operational state down), then normally
+packet receiption is blocked.
+
+This breaks control applications like WPA which maybe expecting to
+receive packets to negotiate to bring link up. The bridge needs to
+block forwarding packets from these disabled ports, but there is no
+hard requirement to not allow local packet delivery.
