The ESW is found in many of the old 100mbit MIPS based SoCs. it has 5
external ports, 1 cpu port and 1 further port that the internal HW
offloading engine connects to.

This driver is very basic and only provides basic init and irq support.
The SoC and switch core both have support for a special tag making DSA
support possible.
Hi Crispin

There was recently a discussion about adding switches without using
DSA or switchdev. It was pretty much decided we would not accept such
drivers.

Sorry
