Hi Kurt

The DSA entries are sorted into alphabetic order based on what you see
in make menuconfig. As such, "Hirschmann Hellcreek TSN Switch support"
fits in between "DSA mock-up Ethernet switch chip support" and "Lantiq
/ Intel GSWIP"

Yes, of course. I've only sorted the entries in the previous patch...

Are there other Hellcreek devices? I'm just wondering if we should
have a specific compatible for 0x4c30 as well as the more generic 
"hirschmann,hellcreek".

Yes, there will be different revisions of the Hellcreek devices. This ID
is really device specific. A lot of features of this switch are
configured in the VHDL code. For instance the MAC settings (100 or 1000
Mbit/s).

I've discussed this with the HW engineer from Hirschmann. He suggested
to keep this check here, as the driver is currently specific for the
that device. We have to make sure that the driver matches the hardware.

My plan was to extend this when I have access to other revisions. There
will be a SPI variant as well. But, I didn't want to implement it without the
ability to test it.

Is there any locking/snapshot of all the counters at once? Most
devices have support for that, so you can compare counters against
each other.

No, there is not.

Thanks,
