+Description:
+ Bitmask to allow forwarding of link local frames with address
+ 01-80-C2-00-00-0X on a bridge device. Only values that set bits
+ not matching BR_GROUPFWD_RESTRICTED in net/bridge/br_private.h
+ allowed.
+ Default value 0 does not forward any link local frames.
+
+ Restricted bits:
+ 0: 01-80-C2-00-00-00 Bridge Group Address used for STP
+ 1: 01-80-C2-00-00-01 (MAC Control) 802.3 used for MAC PAUSE
+ 2: 01-80-C2-00-00-02 (Link Aggregation) 802.3ad
+
+ Any values not setting these bits can be used. Take special
+ care when forwarding control frames e.g. 802.1X-PAE or LLDP.
