Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/5] Enable ACB for bcm_sf2 and bcmsysport

Hi all,

This patch series enables Broadcom's Advanced Congestion Buffering mechanism
which requires cooperation between the CPU/Management Ethernet MAC controller
and the switch.

I took the notifier approach because ultimately the information we need to
carry to the master network device is DSA specific and I saw little room for
generalizing beyond what DSA requires. Chances are that this is highly specific
to the Broadcom HW as I don't know of any HW out there that supports something
nearly similar for similar or identical needs.

Florian Fainelli (5):
  net: dsa: Add support for DSA specific notifiers
  net: dsa: tag_brcm: Indicate to master netdevice port + queue
  net: systemport: Establish lower/upper queue mapping
  net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Turn on ACB at the switch level
  net: systemport: Turn on ACB at the SYSTEMPORT level
