The 'dsa,tag-protocol' is used to force a switch tree to use a particular tag protocol, typically because the Ethernet controller that it is connected to is not compatible with the default one.

Alright. Andrew, Vladimir: I will just list dsa and edsa for now. If it is needed on other devices, people can add them to the list after they have tested their drivers. Fair?
