[c-nsp] MST & Reserved VLANs on Nexus 5010

[Gary T. Giesen]

Just to give an update to everyone...

4.2(1)N2(1), released on 30-Jul-2010, has the fix for this, and
supports all VLANs (for the purposes of MST, the VLANs are still
reserved). Also seems to have solved a nasty little LACP bug I ran
into. Since the Nexus didn't explicitly support LACP Fast LACBPDUs
(until this release), if the other side was configured for Fast, the
port would occasionally bounce on its own. Doesn't seem to be the case
anymore (and now fully supports Fast Mode).
