Indeed, looks like we need to extend dsa_ops with a per-port initialization
callback (i.e. .port_init()).  The general idea of the current dsa API is not to
expose all the internal state data inside the dsa per-device uclass platform
data, particularly udevice pointers have no place inside platform data
structures (like was the case for the previous patch sets). So these per port
felix initializations need to be addressed by extending the current API.

Thanks.
