Roopa Prabhu cc273a51d0 bridge: Add master device name to bridge fdb show
This patch adds master dev name from NDA_MASTER netlink attribute
 to bridge fdb show output

current iproute2 tries to print 'master' in the output if NTF_MASTER
is present. But, kernel today does not set NTF_MASTER during dump
requests. Which means I have not seen iproute2 bridge cmd print 'master' atall.
This patch overrides the NTF_MASTER flag if NDA_MASTER attribute is present.

Example output:

before this patch:
# bridge fdb show
44:38:39:00:27:ba dev bond2.2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bb dev bond4.2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bc dev bond2.2004 permanent

After this patch:
# bridge fdb show
44:38:39:00:27:ba dev bond2.2003 master br-2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bb dev bond4.2003 master br-2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bc dev bond2.2004 master br-2004 permanent

For comparision with the above, below is the output for NTF_SELF today,
# bridge fdb show
33:33:00:00:00:01 dev eth0 self permanent
01:00:5e:00:00:01 dev eth0 self permanent
33:33:ff:00:01:cc dev eth0 self permanent

If change in output is a concern, 'master' can be put at the end of the fdb
output line or made optional with -d[etails] option.

change from v1 to v2:
    use 'bridge' instead of 'master' in fdb show output

change from v2 to v3:
    use 'master' instead of 'bridge' in fdb show output
    (master could also be a vxlan device)

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
