Ok, makes sense. So far, unoffloaded bridge ports meant that the DSA
switch driver didn't have a ->port_bridge_join() implementation.
Presumably that also came along with a missing ->port_fdb_add()
implementation. So probably no NPD for the existing code paths, it is
just your unoffloaded MST support that opens up new possibilities.

Anyway, the dereference of dp->bridge first appeared in commit
c26933639b54 ("net: dsa: request drivers to perform FDB isolation")
which is still just in net-next.
