> This patch series adds a few helpers to DSA core for clarity and > readability but brings no functional changes. > > A dsa_slave_notify helper calls the DSA notifiers when (un)registering a > slave device. > > Most of the DSA slave code only needs to access the dsa_port structure, > not the dsa_slave_priv (which only contains a few PHY-specific members). > Thus a dsa_slave_to_port helper returns a dsa_port structure of a slave > device. > > A dsa_slave_to_master returns the master device of a slave device. > > After that the netdev member of the dsa_port structure is split into two > explicit master and slave members to avoid confusion, and a dsa_to_port > helper is added for switch drivers to get a const reference to a port. > > Changes in v2: > - prefer dsa_slave_to_master instead of dsa_slave_get_master > - rename dsa_master_get_slave to dsa_master_find_slave > - pack master and slave net devices into an anonymous union > - add dsa_to_port public helper for switch drivers > - add Reviewed-by tags from Florian Series applied.
