The reason for this is that I wanted it to be so that if you have MAB enabled (and locked of course) and unlock the port, it will automatically clear both flags instead of having to first disable MAB and then unlock the port.
User space can just do:
# bridge link set dev swp1 locked off mab off
I prefer not to push such logic into the kernel and instead fail explicitly. I won't argue if more people are in favor.

I prefer to fail explicitly too, actually I also had a comment about this but somehow have managed to delete it before sending my review. :)
