The SF2 binding just encapsulates the normal legacy DSA binding in its
simplified, one switch only configuration, that makes things much
easier, but not way off.

It would if we also added support for parsing and filing in a routing
table, so yes, that is currently missing.
How about offering dsa_of_parse() (or another name) as a helper function
which fills up a dsa_switch / dsa_switch_tree structure to the best it
can, and then let a driver dealing with the old binding call into the
bottom parts of dsa_register_switch()? That could allow us to remove
some of the duplicated code from net/dsa/dsa.c by doing so
The other approach could be to have custom DT parsing in bcm_sf2.c and
also call the bottom parts of dsa_register_switch() once it has properly
initialized ds/dst.
How much support do we want to have for the old binding for in tree
platforms? Is the plan to migrate them all to the new binding?
