Hi David, These two patches address some real world use cases of the DSA master and slave network devices. You have already seen patch 1 previously and you rejected it since my explanations were not good enough to provide a justification as to why it is useful, hopefully this time my explanation is better. Patch 2 solves a different, yet very real problem as well at the bridge layer when using DSA network devices. Thanks!
