Merge branch 'Update-DSAs-FDB-API-and-perform-switchdev-cleanup'
Arkadi Sharshevsky says: ==================== Update DSA's FDB API and perform switchdev cleanup The patchset adds support for configuring static FDB entries via the switchdev notification chain. The current method for FDB configuration uses the switchdev's bridge bypass implementation. In order to support this legacy way and to perform the switchdev cleanup, the implementation is moved inside DSA. The DSA drivers cannot sync the software bridge with hardware learned entries and use the switchdev's implementation of bypass FDB dumping. Because they are the only ones using this functionality, the fdb_dump implementation is moved from switchdev code into DSA. Finally after this changes a major cleanup in switchdev can be done. Please see individual patches for patch specific change logs. v1->v2 - Split MDB/vlan dump removal into core/driver removal. v2->v3 - The self implementation for FDB add/del is moved inside DSA. ==================== Tested-by: Vivien Didelot <vivien.didelot@savoirfairelinux.com> Tested-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
