Without a valid of_node in struct device we can't find the mvpp2 port
device by its DT node. Specifically, this breaks
of_find_net_device_by_node().
For example, the Armada 8040 based Clearfog GT-8K uses Marvell 88E6141
switch connected to the &cp1_eth2 port:
&cp1_mdio {
...
switch0: switch0@4 {
compatible = "marvell,mv88e6085";
...
ports {
...
port@5 {
reg = <5>;
label = "cpu";
ethernet = <&cp1_eth2>;
};
};
};
};
Without this patch, dsa_register_switch() returns -EPROBE_DEFER because
of_find_net_device_by_node() can't find the device_node of the &cp1_eth2
device.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
