====================
net: dsa: Multi-CPU ground work (v4)
This patch series prepares the ground for adding mutliple CPU port support to
DSA, and starts by removing redundant pieces of information such as
master_netdev which is cpu_dp->ethernet. Finally drivers are moved away from
directly accessing ds->dst->cpu_dp and use appropriate helper functions.
Note that if you have Device Tree blobs/platform configurations that are
currently listing multiple CPU ports, the proposed behavior in
dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp() will be to return the last bit set in ds->cpu_port_mask.
Future plans include:
- making dst->cpu_dp a flexible data structure (array, list, you name it)
- having the ability for drivers to return a default/preferred CPU port (if
necessary)
Changes in v4:
- fixed build warning with NETPOLL enabled
Changes in v3:
- removed the last patch since it causes problems with bcm_sf2/b53 in a
dual-CPU case (root cause known, proper fix underway)
- removed dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp()
Changes in v2:
- added Reviewed-by tags
- assign port->cpu_dp earlier before ops->setup() has run
