Re: [RFC PATCH 1/3] net: dsa: Use devm_ prefixed allocations

[Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>]

Hi Neil

I tested all three patches on a board with three switches.

1) Normal boot
2) Bad address set for the 3rd switch so that it was not found, so
   causing the probe to fail.

No regressions observed. 

Tested-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>

As Florian said, this is going in the right direction for modular DSA,
but still quite a way to go...

    Thanks
	Andrew
