Hello everyone, This series introduces a new driver, for the Qualcomm IPQESS Ethernet Controller, found on the IPQ4019. The driver itself is pretty straightforward, but has lived out-of-tree for a while. I've done my best to clean-up some outdated API calls, but some might remain. This controller is somewhat special, since it's part of the IPQ4019 SoC which also includes an QCA8K switch, and uses the IPQESS controller for the CPU port. The switch is so tightly intergrated with the MAC that it is connected to the MAC using an internal link (hence the fact that we only support PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL), and this has some consequences on the DSA side. The tagging for the switch isn't done inband as most switch do, but out-of-band, the DSA tag being included in the DMA descriptor. So, this series also includes a new DSA tagging protocol, that sets the DSA port index into skb->shinfo, so that the MAC driver can use it to build the descriptor. This is definitely unusual, so I'l very openned to suggestions, comments and reviews on the tagging side of this series. Thanks to the Sartura folks who worked on a base version of this driver, and provided test hardware.
