Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/5] net: dsa: master and slave helpers

This patch series adds a few helpers to DSA core for clarity and
readability but brings no functional changes.

A dsa_slave_notify helper calls the DSA notifiers when (un)registering a
slave device.

Most of the DSA slave code only needs to access the dsa_port structure,
not the dsa_slave_priv (which only contains a few PHY-specific members).
Thus a dsa_slave_to_port helper returns a dsa_port structure of a slave
device.

A dsa_slave_get_master returns the master device of a slave device.

After that the netdev member of the dsa_port structure is split into two
explicit master and slave members to avoid confusion, even though it is
not planned to create a slave for DSA or CPU ports for the moment.

Vivien Didelot (5):
  net: dsa: use port's cpu_dp when creating a slave
  net: dsa: add slave notify helper
  net: dsa: add slave to port helper
  net: dsa: add slave get master helper
  net: dsa: split dsa_port's netdev member
