The API for this one was chosen to be different than the one for
.port_vlan_add and .port_vlan_prepare because
(a) the list of dsa_switch_ops is growing bigger but in this case there
     is no justification for it. For example there are some drivers that
     don't do anything in .port_vlan_prepare, and likewise, they may not
     need to do anything in .port_vlan_filtering_prepare either
(b) the DSA API should be as close as possible to the switchdev API
     except when there's a strong reason for that not to be the case. In
     this situation, I don't see why it would be different.

I understand that this new function prototype is not to everyone's
taste?

Just need more time to review, have not looked at it yet.
