====================
Autoload DSA tagging driver when dynamically changing protocol
This patch set solves the issue reported by Michael and Heiko here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/
20221027113248.420216-1-michael@walle.cc/
making full use of Michael's suggestion of having two modaliases: one
gets used for loading the tagging protocol when it's the default one
reported by the switch driver, the other gets loaded at user's request,
by name.
# modinfo tag_ocelot

license: GPL v2
alias: dsa_tag:seville

depends: dsa_core
intree: Y
name: tag_ocelot
vermagic: 6.1.0-rc4+ SMP preempt mod_unload modversions aarch64
Tested on NXP LS1028A-RDB with the following device tree addition:
&mscc_felix_port4 {
dsa-tag-protocol = "ocelot-8021q";
};
&mscc_felix_port5 {
dsa-tag-protocol = "ocelot-8021q";
};
CONFIG_NET_DSA and everything that depends on it is built as module.
Everything auto-loads, and "cat /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging" shows
"ocelot-8021q". Traffic works as well. Furthermore, "echo ocelot-8021q"
into the aforementioned sysfs file now auto-loads the driver for it.
