Vladimir Oltean bde82f389a net: dsa: merge all bools of struct dsa_port into a single u8
struct dsa_port has 5 bool members which create quite a number of 7 byte
holes in the structure layout. By merging them all into bitfields of an
u8, and placing that u8 in the 1-byte hole after dp->mac and dp->stp_state,
we can reduce the structure size from 576 bytes to 552 bytes on arm64.

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.

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.
