Since commit4cf35a2b62("net: mscc: ocelot: fix broken IP multicast flooding") from v5.12, unregistered IP multicast flooding is configurable in the ocelot driver for bridged ports. However, by writing 0 to the PGID_MCIPV4 and PGID_MCIPV6 port masks at initialization time, the CPU port module, for which ocelot_port_set_mcast_flood() is not called, will have unknown IP multicast flooding disabled. This makes it impossible for an application such as smcroute to work properly, since all IP multicast traffic received on a standalone port is treated as unregistered (and dropped). Starting with commit7569459a52("net: dsa: manage flooding on the CPU ports"), the limitation above has been lifted, because when standalone ports become IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI, ocelot_port_set_mcast_flood() would be called on the CPU port module, so unregistered multicast is flooded to the CPU on an as-needed basis. But between v5.12 and v5.18, IP multicast flooding to the CPU has remained broken, promiscuous or not. Delete the inexplicable premature optimization of clearing PGID_MCIPV4 and PGID_MCIPV6 as part of the init sequence, and allow unregistered IP multicast to be flooded freely to the CPU port module.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
