This is not an error condition as such. The switch cannot do it, so
-EOPNOTSUPP is correct, but the Linux software bridge can, and it
will. So there is no need to use NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD().

This does not look quite correct. So you disable port separation once
both ports are a member of the same bridge. So you should enable port
separation as soon as one leaves. So if fep->br_members has 0 or 1
bits set, you need to enable port separation.
