David S. Miller 202a5d5a7a Merge branch 'net-dsa-Setup-dsa_netdev_ops'
Florian Fainelli says:

====================
net: dsa: Setup dsa_netdev_ops

This patch series addresses the overloading of a DSA CPU/management
interface's netdev_ops for the purpose of providing useful information
from the switch side.

Up until now we had duplicated the existing netdev_ops structure and
added specific function pointers to return information of interest. Here
we have a more controlled way of doing this by involving the specific
netdev_ops function pointers that we want to be patched, which is easier
for auditing code in the future. As a byproduct we can now maintain
netdev_ops pointer comparisons which would be failing before (no known
in tree problems because of that though).

Let me know if this approach looks reasonable to you and we might do the
same with our ethtool_ops overloading as well.

Changes in v2:

- use static inline int vs. static int inline (Kbuild robot)
- fixed typos in patch 4 (Andrew)
- avoid using macros (Andrew)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
