net: dsa: make the STP state function return void
The DSA layer doesn't care about the return code of the port_stp_update routine, so make it void in the layer and the DSA drivers. Replace the useless dsa_slave_stp_update function with a dsa_slave_stp_state function used to reply to the switchdev SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_STP_STATE attribute. In the meantime, rename port_stp_update to port_stp_state_set to explicit the state change. Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot <vivien.didelot@savoirfairelinux.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
