I thought the dsa_port_notify functions are just to be
called from switchdev. I'm still not sure I fully understand, but I'll
try to switch to that in v2 and see what happens.
dsa_port_notify is used to forward an event occuring on a given port, to
all switch chips of a fabric. For example when programming a VLAN on a port,
all ports interconnecting switches together must to programmed too. Even
though mainly switchdev objects or attributes are notified at the moment,
a DSA notification is not specific to switchdev.
