Bridge locking for /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/stp_enabled was wrong. Another bug in bridge utilities makes it such that this interface, meant it wasn't being used. The locking needs to be removed from set_stp_state(), the lock is already acquired down in br_stp_start()/br_stp_stop.

This patch adds a 'hairpin' (also called 'reflective relay') mode port configuration to the Linux Ethernet bridge kernel module. A bridge supporting hairpin forwarding mode can send frames back out through the port the frame was received on. Hairpin mode is required to support basic VEPA (Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregator) capabilities. You can find additional information on VEPA
