    net: dsa: introduce a dsa_port_from_netdev public helper · e1eea811

    As its implementation shows, this is synonimous with calling
    dsa_slave_dev_check followed by dsa_slave_to_port, so it is quite simple
    already and provides functionality which is already there.
    
    However there is now a need for these functions outside dsa_priv.h, for
    example in drivers that perform mirroring and redirection through
    tc-flower offloads (they are given raw access to the flow_cls_offload
    structure), where they need to call this function on act->dev.
    
    But simply exporting dsa_slave_to_port would make it non-inline and
    would result in an extra function call in the hotpath, as can be seen
    for example in sja1105:
    
    Before:
    
    000006dc <sja1105_xmit>:
    {
     6dc:	e92d4ff0 	push	{r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, fp, lr}
     6e0:	e1a04000 	mov	r4, r0
     6e4:	e591958c 	ldr	r9, [r1, #1420]	; 0x58c <- Inline dsa_slave_to_port
     6e8:	e1a05001 	mov	r5, r1
     6ec:	e24dd004 	sub	sp, sp, #4
    	u16 tx_vid = dsa_8021q_tx_vid(dp->ds, dp->index);
     6f0:	e1c901d8 	ldrd	r0, [r9, #24]
     6f4:	ebfffffe 	bl	0 <dsa_8021q_tx_vid>
    			6f4: R_ARM_CALL	dsa_8021q_tx_vid
    	u8 pcp = netdev_txq_to_tc(netdev, queue_mapping);
     6f8:	e1d416b0 	ldrh	r1, [r4, #96]	; 0x60
    	u16 tx_vid = dsa_8021q_tx_vid(dp->ds, dp->index);
     6fc:	e1a08000 	mov	r8, r0
    
    After:
    
    000006e4 <sja1105_xmit>:
    {
     6e4:	e92d4ff0 	push	{r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, fp, lr}
     6e8:	e1a04000 	mov	r4, r0
     6ec:	e24dd004 	sub	sp, sp, #4
    	struct dsa_port *dp = dsa_slave_to_port(netdev);
     6f0:	e1a00001 	mov	r0, r1
    {
     6f4:	e1a05001 	mov	r5, r1
    	struct dsa_port *dp = dsa_slave_to_port(netdev);
     6f8:	ebfffffe 	bl	0 <dsa_slave_to_port>
    			6f8: R_ARM_CALL	dsa_slave_to_port
     6fc:	e1a09000 	mov	r9, r0
    	u16 tx_vid = dsa_8021q_tx_vid(dp->ds, dp->index);
     700:	e1c001d8 	ldrd	r0, [r0, #24]
     704:	ebfffffe 	bl	0 <dsa_8021q_tx_vid>
    			704: R_ARM_CALL	dsa_8021q_tx_vid
    
    Because we want to avoid possible performance regressions, introduce
    this new function which is designed to be public.
