When the possibility for it to be true will exist, _all_ switchdev

rocker, prestera, etc etc), not just DSA. And you don't need to
propagate the is_locked flag to all individual DSA sub-drivers when none
care about is_locked in the ADD_TO_DEVICE direction, you can just ignore
within DSA until needed otherwise.


Maybe I have it wrong, but I think that Ido requested me to send it to all the drivers, and have them ignore entries with is_locked=true ...
