Just did a quick scan for that error message in the kernel source. Turns
out it's triggered in net/bridge/br_fdb.c:289. 

        if (!is_valid_ether_addr(addr))
                return -EADDRNOTAVAIL;

Interestingly enough, it's claiming that the mac addy isn't any good!
8-(

I'll go add a printk line to that to see if I can determine what kind of
data it's getting to fdb_insert to cause this glitch... unless someone
else tells me somethign obvious and stupid that I did that fixes it. :)
