net: mscc: ocelot: allow forwarding from bridge ports to the tag_8021q CPU port

Currently we are unable to ping a bridge on top of a felix switch which
uses the ocelot-8021q tagger. The packets are dropped on the ingress of
the user port and the 'drop_local' counter increments (the counter which
denotes drops due to no valid destinations).

Dumping the PGID tables, it becomes clear that the PGID_SRC of the user
port is zero, so it has no valid destinations.

But looking at the code, the cpu_fwd_mask (the bit mask of DSA tag_8021q
ports) is clearly missing from the forwarding mask of ports that are
under a bridge. So this has always been broken.

Looking at the version history of the patch, in v7
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210125220333.1004365-12-olteanv@gmail.com/
the code looked like this:

/* Standalone ports forward only to DSA tag_8021q CPU ports */
unsigned long mask = cpu_fwd_mask;

(...)
} else if (ocelot->bridge_fwd_mask & BIT(port)) {
mask |= ocelot->bridge_fwd_mask & ~BIT(port);

while in v8 (the merged version)
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210129010009.3959398-12-olteanv@gmail.com/
it looked like this:

unsigned long mask;

(...)
} else if (ocelot->bridge_fwd_mask & BIT(port)) {
mask = ocelot->bridge_fwd_mask & ~BIT(port);

So the breakage was introduced between v7 and v8 of the patch.
