Unfortunately, the workarounds for the hardware bugs make it pointless to keep fine-grained locking for the MAC Merge state of each port. Our vsc9959_cut_through_fwd() implementation requires ocelot->fwd_domain_lock to be held, in order to serialize with changes to the bridging domains and to port speed changes (which affect which ports can be cut-through). Simultaneously, the traffic classes which can be cut-through cannot be preemptible at the same time, and this will depend on the MAC Merge layer state (which changes from threaded interrupt context). Since vsc9959_cut_through_fwd() would have to hold the mm->lock of all ports for a correct and race-free implementation with respect to ocelot_mm_irq(), in practice it means that any time a port's mm->lock is held, it would potentially block holders of ocelot->fwd_domain_lock. In the interest of simple locking rules, make all MAC Merge layer state changes (and preemptible traffic class changes) be serialized by the ocelot->fwd_domain_lock.
