+Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: qca8k: enable assisted learning on CPU port
+
+Enable assisted learning on CPU port.
+
+It has been verified that there is a problem in packet roaming
+from one BSS to another in the same security settings from one
+physical R7800 to another physical R7800 where they are in the
+same L2 broadcast domain backhauled/linked together via one
+of the ethernet ports.
+DHCP will fail to complete and traffic cannot flow for around 300
+seconds.
