Well, dsa_switch_destroy() is where ds->slave_mii_bus gets unregistered
(if registered by the framework), so it seems fair to do something like:
if (ds->drv->shutdown)
ds->drv->shutdown(ds);
But I'm still not sure if it is worth it to add a new legacy specific
function to DSA drivers, unless there is a use case for such optional
teardown callback for the new bindings too.
Thanks,
Vivien
