Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 03/12] Documentation: networking: dsa: remove static port count from limitations
Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2021 23:33:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210221213355.1241450-4-olteanv@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210221213355.1241450-1-olteanv@gmail.com>

From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com>

After Vivien's series from 2019 containing commits 27d4d19d7c82 ("net:
dsa: remove limitation of switch index value") and ab8ccae122a4 ("net:
dsa: add ports list in the switch fabric"), this is basically no longer
true.
