This is one more refactoring patch set for the Linux bridge, where more
logic that is specific to switchdev is moved into br_switchdev.c, which
is compiled out when CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV is disabled.

Looks good.

While you are at it, don't you plan to also move switchdev.c into
br_switchdev.c and eventually rename to br_offload.c ?

Switchdev is about bridge offloading only anyway.

You mean I should effectively make switchdev part of the bridge?
See commit 957e2235e526 ("net: make switchdev_bridge_port_{,unoffload}
loosely coupled with the bridge").
