Allow drivers to use the new DSA API with platform data. Most of the code in net/dsa/dsa2.c does not rely so much on device_nodes and can get the same information from platform_data instead. We purposely do not support distributed configurations with platform data, so drivers should be providing a pointer to a 'struct dsa_chip_data' structure if they wish to communicate per-port layout. Multiple CPUs port could potentially be supported and dsa_chip_data is extended to receive up to one reference to an upstream network device per port described by a dsa_chip_data structure. dsa_dev_to_net_device() increments the network device's reference count, so we intentionally call dev_put() to be consistent with the DT-enabled path, until we have a generic notifier based solution.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
