Indeed, for dsa_slave you should be able to port this to switchdev and
set your ndo_bridge_setlink/dellink handlers to
switchdev_port_bridge_setlink/dellink.  (And also implement the
switchdev ops for vlans).

If you use switchdev_port_bridge_setlink/dellink, you shouldn't need
to implement ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid/ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid at all.  The
setlink/dellink callbacks will give the same info (and more, e.g.
pvid, untagged flags) and you'll automatically get support for stacked
drivers, for example if you bonded swp2/3 and then included that bond
in your vlan bridge.  Your commands will be slightly modified: when
adding the vid to the port, specify master and self:

bridge vlan add vid 400 dev swp4 master self
