From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Upon a quick inspection, it seems that there is some code in the generic DSA layer that is somehow specific to the Broadcom SYSTEMPORT driver. The challenge there is that the hardware integration is very tight between the switch and the DSA master interface. However this does not mean that the drivers must also be as integrated as the hardware is. We can avoid creating a DSA notifier just for the Broadcom SYSTEMPORT, and we can move some Broadcom-specific queue mapping helpers outside of the common include/net/dsa.h.
