Hi,

this v2 of the patch set expands on the original by also updating the
ip/link_bridge_slave.c, and its corresponding manual page.  Both this
and the original address a slight omission in controlling broadcast
flooding per bridge port, which the bridge has had support for a good
while now.

I've grouped the setting alongside it's cousin mcast_flood, maybe we
should move unicast flooding to the same group of settings, to make
it easier to locate them in manuals and usage text?

v2:
  - Add bcast_flood also to ip/iplink_bridge_slave.c
  - Update man page for ip-link(8) with new bcast_flood flag
  - Update mcast_flood in same man page slightly
  - Fix minor weird whitespace issues causing sudden line breaks
v1:
  - Add bcast_flood to bridge/link.c
  - Update man page for bridge(8) with bcast_flood for brports

Best regards
