Good question... But as for as I can see, there are a single tagger and multiple device drivers (currently KSZ8795 and KSZ9477). Moving the KSZ9477 specific stuff, which is required by the tagger, into the KSZ9477 device driver, would make the tagger dependent on the driver(s). Currently, no tagger seems to have this direction of dependency (at least I cannot find this in net/dsa/Kconfig). If I shall change this anyway, I would use #ifdefs within the tag_ksz driver in order to avoid unnecessary dependencies to the KSZ9477 driver for the case only KSZ8795 is selected. > You could even move > the entire ksz9477_tstamp_to_clock() into the driver as-is, as far as I > can see.
