We can't apply it yet until my stuff gets in...I'm working on it. I extended your patch for fdb dump as well, which I'll send tomorrow. For dump, I've added swdev_port_obj_dump() op and moved all the netlink skb building code to code swdev code. The driver implements very little and is unaware of the netlink msg being built. With your patch, we can finally do the fdb flushes and fdb ageing on the port without having to synthesis netlink msgs inside the kernel. I'm not sure if that's what you're working on, but it's the next logical piece to plumb. (Hopefully you are working on that :). (btw, you have my email addr wrong).
