Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/8] net: dsa: make module builds work
Building any DSA driver as a module will work from a compilation/linking
perspective, but the resulting modules produced are not functional.
Any DSA driver references register_switch_driver and
unregister_switch_driver which are provided by net/dsa/dsa.c, so loading
any of these modules prior to dsa_core.ko being loaded will faill.
Unfortunately, loading dsa_core.ko will make us call dsa_switch_probe()
which will find no DSA switch driver and return an error so we are stuck
there because there is no switch driver available. So this is getting us
nowhere.
This patch introduces a separate module, named dsa_lib which contains
register_switch_driver, unregister_switch_driver and dsa_switch_probe
(to avoid exposing the list and mutex used for walking switch drivers),
such that the following can be done:
- load dsa_lib
- load the dsa switch driver, e.g: mv88e6060, bcm_sf2
- load the dsa_core module
