I am a little confused by your comment. The 4 original KSZ9477 DSA driver files were written by Woojung at Microchip Technology Inc. There was a complaint the "AS IS" license is not exactly GPL.
It should be submitted formally to net-next instead of a RFC, but it is probably pointless to do that when there is no code change.
I am hoping these drastic changes of KSZ9477 driver can be accepted so that the patches can be submitted formally to net-next.
