Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 00/13] NXP SJA1105 DSA driver

This patchset adds a DSA driver for the SPI-managed NXP SJA1105 driver.
Due to the hardware's unfriendliness, most of its state needs to be
shadowed in kernel memory by the driver. To support this and keep a
decent amount of cleanliness in the code, a new generic API for
converting between CPU-accessible ("unpacked") structures and
hardware-accessible ("packed") structures is proposed and used.

Then several small modifications are done to the DSA core, like changing
the order of two calls during initialization, or permitting driver
access to the dp->vlan_filtering property.

These small modifications are done for the greater goal of adding
support for 802.1Q pseudo-switch tagging. The limitations of this type
of tagging are discussed in the commit that adds it, and in the code
comments.

The SJA1105 driver then proceeds to extend this 8021q switch tagging
protocol while adding its own (tag_sja1105). This is done because
SJA1105 needs SPI intervention during transmission of link-local
traffic, which cannot be done from the xmit handler but requires a
deferred worker thread.

The driver is GPL-2.0 licensed. The source code files which are licensed
as BSD-3-Clause are hardware support files and derivative of the
userspace NXP sja1105-tool program, which is BSD-3-Clause licensed.

TODO items:
* Add full support for the P/Q/R/S series. The patches were mostly
  tested on a first-generation T device.
* Add timestamping support and PTP clock manipulation.
* Figure out what the current state of tc-taprio hw offload is, and
  attempt to configure the switch's time-aware scheduler using that.
