Subject: [PATCH v3 10/10] staging: fsl-dpaa2/ethsw: do not force user to bring interface down

Link settings can be changed only when the interface is down. Disable
and re-enable the interface, if necessary, behind the scenes so that we do
not force users to an if down/up sequence.

Reported-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@...n.ch>
Signed-off-by: Ioana Ciornei <ioana.ciornei@....com>

Changes in v2:
 - added Reported-by tag
Changes in v3:
 - fixup error path by swapping the return and netdev_err
