net: bridge: br_switchdev: Tolerate -EOPNOTSUPP when replaying MDB

There are two kinds of MDB entries to be replayed: port MDB entries, and
host MDB entries. They are both replayed by br_switchdev_mdb_replay(). If
the driver supports one kind, but lacks the other, the first -EOPNOTSUPP
returned terminates the whole replay, including any further still-supported
objects in the list.

For this to cause issues, there must be MDB entries for both the host and
the port being replayed. In that case, if the driver bails out from
handling the host entry, the port entries are never replayed. However, the
replay is currently only done when a switchdev port joins a bridge. There
would be no port memberships at that point. Thus despite being erroneous,
the code does not cause observable bugs.

This is not an issue with other object kinds either, because there, each
function replays one object kind. If a driver does not support that kind,
it makes sense to bail out early. -EOPNOTSUPP is then ignored in
nbp_switchdev_sync_objs().

For MDB, suppress the -EOPNOTSUPP error code in br_switchdev_mdb_replay()
already, so that the whole list gets replayed.

The reason we need this patch is that a future patch will introduce a
replay that should be used when a front-panel port netdevice is enslaved to
a bridge lower, in particular a LAG. The LAG netdevice can already have
both host and port MDB entries. The port entries need to be replayed so
that they are offloaded on the port that joins the LAG.
