wait, why kirkwood?
I have one of the two kirkwood devices with a switch, running snapshot
and it's definitely been using DSA for a while
Checking the kernel config....
CONFIG_HAVE_NET_DSA=y
and there is no CONFIG_SWCONFIG
Yes it is using DSA.
The commit to move kirkwood to DSA is
4fd7e539e4f90128bdd7cb71c729a4b32f5de86e
from April 28
