Unrelated change should be separate.

There was a previous attempt at this before, by Alexander Lobakin:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20221119225650.1044591-16-alobakin@pm.me/

but it seems he wasn't persistent enough with it.

Something which I liked better in his proposal was the naming of the
config option (FSL_DPAA2_MAC) and of the new module (fsl-dpaa2-mac).

Something which I like better in your proposal is the straightforward
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL rather than EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL() whose purpose I did
not understand.

A mix of the 2 would be great.

I am not completely sure how this works. Can fsl-dpaa2-common appear
both in obj-y (added by $(CONFIG_FSL_DPAA2_ETH)) and in obj-m (added by
$(CONFIG_FSL_DPAA2_SWITCH))? Olek proposed the introduction of a new,
hidden and selectable tristate FSL_DPAA2_MAC. At least I understand how
that works.

Also, the commit message prefix is wrong. "dpaa:" gets used for "drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa/".
DPAA(1) and DPAA2 have as much in common as King Charles II and Charles III.
