Thanks for this. It looks like Andrew may be in a better position to say
if this fix should go in or not.
It is possible that if bridge changes the ifp and that the frame should
be forwarded locally, i.e. to the upper protocol layers, that ifp should
also be updated in ether_input() (as NetBSD does) to make sure that the
later checks are against the updated ifp.
I have just changed this behaviour in p4 bms_netdev. Please try to test
with this code. If you can't access p4, then I can extract an updated
patch though this will take longer.
This should help to eliminate the need for DEV_CARP compile-time
conditionals in if_bridge(4).
