On one hand, I feel pretty yucky about this change.
On the other hand, I wonder if it might be useful under some conditions
for drivers with DSA_TAG_PROTO_NONE? For example, once the user bridges
all slave interfaces, then that bridge will start being able to send and
receive traffic, despite none of the individual switch ports being able
to do that. Then, you could even go off and bridge a "foreign" interface,
and that would again work properly. That use case is not supported today,
but is very useful.
Thoughts?
