Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for the patch, it seems to fix the initial problem(the probe
function failed) but then I start to get some warnings in the probe
function.

These warnings are generated when trying to initialize unused devlink
ports.

To fix this warnings I have added the following line inside
'ocelot_port_devlink_teardown'.

memset(dlp, 0x0, sizeof(struct devlink_port));
