netns: bridge: allow unprivileged users add/delete mdb entry
since the mdb table is belong to bridge device,and the bridge device can only be seen in one netns. So it's safe to allow unprivileged user which is the creator of userns and netns to modify the mdb table. Signed-off-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
