    Before this change applications monitoring FDB notifications
    were not able to determine whether a new FDB entry is permament
    or not:
    bridge fdb add f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f8 dev sw0p1 temp self
    bridge fdb add f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f9 dev sw0p1 self
    
    bridge monitor fdb
    
    f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f8 dev sw0p1 self permanent
    f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f9 dev sw0p1 self permanent
    
    With this change ndm_state from the original netlink message
    is passed to the new netlink message sent as notification.
    
    bridge fdb add f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f6 dev sw0p1 self
    bridge fdb add f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f7 dev sw0p1 temp self
    
    bridge monitor fdb
    f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f6 dev sw0p1 self permanent
    f1:f2:f3:f4:f5:f7 dev sw0p1 self static
