[net-next PATCH 2/2 v5] net: dsa: rtl8366rb: Support the CPU DSA tag

From: Linus Walleij <hidden>
Date: 2020-07-07 21:16:29
Subsystem: networking drivers, networking [dsa], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Vladimir Oltean, Linus Torvalds

This activates the support to use the CPU tag to properly
direct ingress traffic to the right port.

Bit 15 in register RTL8368RB_CPU_CTRL_REG can be set to
1 to disable the insertion of the CPU tag which is what
the code currently does. The bit 15 define calls this
setting RTL8368RB_CPU_INSTAG which is confusing since the
inverse meaning is implied: programmers may think that
setting this bit to 1 will *enable* inserting the tag
rather than disabling it, so rename this setting in
bit 15 to RTL8368RB_CPU_NO_TAG which is more to the
point.

After this e.g. ping works out-of-the-box with the
RTL8366RB.

- Resend with the rest
ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Fix up the commit message.
- Collect Andrew's review tag.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Update the commit message to explain why we are renaming
  bit 15 in RTL8368RB_CPU_CTRL_REG.
