Yanqiu Zhang reported [1] that when a vlan is defined with a single vlan id and native mode set to tagged, the vlan was not setup correctly using the standard Linux bridge functionality. This is due a conflict between the XML validation and the bridge functionality. The XML validation will allow a single vlan id to be configured with native mode set to tagged without setting the vlan mode to trunked. If the vlan is explicitly set to "trunk='no'" then the validation will correctly reject the configuration. Rather than force the user to specify "trunk='yes'", update the code to infer trunk='yes' if a single vlan id is configured with native mode set to a non-default value. It already infers trunk='yes' if more than one vlan id is specified.
