If found, register the DSA internal allocated slave_mii_bus with an OF
"mdio" child object. It can save some drivers from creating their
internal MDIO bus.

Some doubts:
1) is there any special reason for the absence of a "device_node dn" in
   dsa_switch? Is there any constraint on where to place it?
2) Is looking for "mdio" the best solution?

Thanks Alvin, I'll need some help here.

Is it expected for every code that receives a device_node and keeps a
reference to it to call of_node_get()?  I checked of_get_child_by_name
and it seems it just parses the device_node but does not save it.
I'll put it after the registration.

I got confused looking at the dsa_port->dn usage. It is initialized at
dsa_switch_parse_ports_of() with:

for_each_available_child_of_node() {
      ...
      dsa_port_parse_of(dp, port);
}

dsa_port_parse_of(dp, dn) {
      dp->dn = dn;
      ...
}

But nobody calls of_node_put(port) when there is no error.

Should it have used a of_node_put(port) after dsa_port_parse_of() is
called and 'dp->dn = of_node_get(dn)' with a corresponding
of_node_put() when the port is destroyed?

And I dropped "ds->dn" as I can use "ds->dev->of_node". The code
indicates it can be null but it looks like all methods I use seem to
play nice with null values. It's getting even smaller:
