    net: dsa: add a generic procedure for the flow dissector · 9790cf20
    Vladimir Oltean authored
    For all DSA formats that don't use tail tags, it looks like behind the
    obscure number crunching they're all doing the same thing: locating the
    real EtherType behind the DSA tag. Nonetheless, this is not immediately
    obvious, so create a generic helper for those DSA taggers that put the
    header before the EtherType.
    
    Another assumption for the generic function is that the DSA tags are of
    equal length on RX and on TX. Prior to the previous patch, this was not
    true for ocelot and for gswip. The problem was resolved for ocelot, but
    for gswip it still remains, so that can't use this helper yet.
