net: dsa: slave: Handle SWITCHDEV_PORT_OBJ_ADD/_DEL
Following patches will change the way of distributing port object changes from a switchdev operation to a switchdev notifier. The switchdev code currently recursively descends through layers of lower devices, eventually calling the op on a front-panel port device. The notifier will instead be sent referencing the bridge port device, which may be a stacking device that's one of front-panel ports uppers, or a completely unrelated device. DSA currently doesn't support any other uppers than bridge. SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB and _PORT_MDB objects are always notified on the bridge port device. Thus the only case that a stacked device could be validly referenced by port object notifications are bridge notifications for VLAN objects added to the bridge itself. But the driver explicitly rejects such notifications in dsa_port_vlan_add(). It is therefore safe to assume that the only interesting case is that the notification is on a front-panel port netdevice. Therefore keep the filtering by dsa_slave_dev_check() in place. To handle SWITCHDEV_PORT_OBJ_ADD and _DEL, subscribe to the blocking notifier chain. Dispatch to rocker_port_obj_add() resp. _del() to maintain the behavior that the switchdev operation based code currently has.
