David S. Miller b217566a52 Merge branch 'net-dsa-Multi-CPU-ground-work'
Florian Fainelli says:

====================
net: dsa: Multi-CPU ground work (v4)

This patch series prepares the ground for adding mutliple CPU port support to
DSA, and starts by removing redundant pieces of information such as
master_netdev which is cpu_dp->ethernet. Finally drivers are moved away from
directly accessing ds->dst->cpu_dp and use appropriate helper functions.

Note that if you have Device Tree blobs/platform configurations that are
currently listing multiple CPU ports, the proposed behavior in
dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp() will be to return the last bit set in ds->cpu_port_mask.

Future plans include:
- making dst->cpu_dp a flexible data structure (array, list, you name it)
- having the ability for drivers to return a default/preferred CPU port (if
  necessary)

Changes in v4:

- fixed build warning with NETPOLL enabled

Changes in v3:

- removed the last patch since it causes problems with bcm_sf2/b53 in a
  dual-CPU case (root cause known, proper fix underway)

- removed dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp()

Changes in v2:

- added Reviewed-by tags
- assign port->cpu_dp earlier before ops->setup() has run

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
