    net: dsa: Get information about stacked DSA protocol · 4d776482
    Florian Fainelli 提交于
    It is possible to stack multiple DSA switches in a way that they are not
    part of the tree (disjoint) but the DSA master of a switch is a DSA
    slave of another. When that happens switch drivers may have to know this
    is the case so as to determine whether their tagging protocol has a
    remove chance of working.
    
    This is useful for specific switch drivers such as b53 where devices
    have been known to be stacked in the wild without the Broadcom tag
    protocol supporting that feature. This allows b53 to continue supporting
    those devices by forcing the disabling of Broadcom tags on the outermost
    switches if necessary.
    
    The get_tag_protocol() function is therefore updated to gain an
    additional enum dsa_tag_protocol argument which denotes the current
    tagging protocol used by the DSA master we are attached to, else
    DSA_TAG_PROTO_NONE for the top of the dsa_switch_tree.
