Hm, I can see it was actually merged to the net-next already:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git/commit/?id=bb66be1c549a0760500cfad404b3d79a136d0e44

But this dsa implementation is still totally unclear to me. So I can
see we now have
1) port_join_bridge
2) port_leave_bridge

How does it allow me to bridge few ports with specifying PVID /
(UN)TAG for some of them?
