Hi Florian

Could there be one more patch at the end which removes this?  I think
it is here just as an intermediary step?
Yes, we can have only dsa2.c and legacy.c include that file from there
on, I will resubmit with that change, thanks!
We actually need to keep that include in there, because we use
DSA_MAX_SWITCHES in net/dsa.h and splitting that define away could be a
bit tedious since it is used by dsa_platform_data which was exposed before.

Another option could be to not expose dsa_platform_data all, only
dsa_chip_data which describes a single switch, and then we can have a
nice and lean platform_data/dsa.h file that only has a few definitions.

Which route do you prefer?
