Not a real expert, but if suspend/resume loses the Ethernet link,
I expect that no dynamically learned entries are preserved across
a link loss event.

In DSA for example, we only keep ageable entries in hardware as long as
the port STP state, plus BR_LEARNING port flag, are compatible with
having such FDB entries. Otherwise, any transition to such a state
flushes the ageable FDB entries.

A link loss generates a bridge port transition to the DISABLED state,
which DSA uses to generate a SWITCHDEV_FDB_FLUSH_TO_BRIDGE event.

I'm not sure if it would even be possible to accurately do the right
thing and update the ageing timer of the FDB entries with the amount of
time that the system was suspended.=
