must also add a call here to change the admin state, due to the fact
that linkwatch_do_dev may call netdev_state_change() after dev_activate().
So it seems that "case NETDEV_CHANGE" and "case NETDEV_UP" may share the
same implementation, like this:
case NETDEV_CHANGE:
case UP:
if (netdev_uses_dsa(dev)) {
struct dsa_port *cpu_dp = dev->dsa_ptr;
struct dsa_switch_tree *dst = cpu_dp->ds->dst;
dsa_tree_master_admin_state_change(dst, dev,
qdisc_tx_is_noop(dev));
dsa_tree_master_oper_state_change(dst, dev,
netif_oper_up(dev));
return NOTIFY_OK;
}
return NOTIFY_DONE;
}
Would be good to also add some comments.
