Merge branch 'dsa-mv88e6xxx-switch-factorization'
Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: factorize switch info This patchset factorizes the mv88e6xxx code by sharing a new extendable info structure to store static data such as switch family, product number, number of ports, number of databases and the name. The next step is to add a "flags" bitmap member to the info structure in order to simplify the shared code with a feature-based logic instead of checking their family/ID. This is a step forward having a single mv88e6xxx driver supporting many similar devices, like any usual Linux driver. Changes v3 -> v4: - constify probed name in DSA - rebase patchset above conflicting commit 48ace4ef Changes v2 -> v3: - update commit messages and add Andrew's tags - keep the info lookup code in a separated function - split the single switch ID reading in probe in a new commit Changes v1 -> v2: - define PORT_SWITCH_ID_PROD_NUM_* values - use plain struct mv88e6xxx_info - remove non used yet ps->rev ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
