Ok makes sense. Can I make a patch drop the use of
of_device_get_match_data and then apply this on top?

(we use of_device_get_match_data also in other functions)

Sorry... totally forgot this as I was very busy with giving good series.
Will handle this in the next version.

(will be also useful later for the single dsa_switch_ops transition if
we want to put all of them there)
