Vivien Didelot 71327a4e7d net: dsa: rename port_*_bridge routines
Rename DSA port_join_bridge and port_leave_bridge routines to
respectively port_bridge_join and port_bridge_leave in order to respect
an implicit Port::Bridge namespace.

Vivien Didelot 477b184526 net: dsa: drop vlan_getnext
The VLAN GetNext operation is specific to some switches, and thus can be
complicated to implement for some drivers.

Remove the support for the vlan_getnext/port_pvid_get approach in favor
of the generic and simpler port_vlan_dump function.

Vivien Didelot 65aebfc002 net: dsa: add port_vlan_dump routine
Similar to port_fdb_dump, add a port_vlan_dump function to DSA drivers
which gets passed the switchdev VLAN object and callback.

This function, if implemented, takes precedence over the soon legacy
vlan_getnext/port_pvid_get approach.

Vivien Didelot a6692754d6 net: dsa: pass bridge down to drivers
Some DSA drivers may or may not support multiple software bridges on top
of an hardware switch.

It is more convenient for them to access the bridge's net_device for
finer configuration.

Removing the need to craft and access a bitmask also simplifies the
code.

This patch changes the signature of bridge related functions, update DSA
drivers, and removes dsa_slave_br_port_mask.
