net: renesas: rswitch: use device instead of net_device
In upcomming changes for adding vlan support struct net_device
will not be available in all cases, therefore use struct device
instead.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this cleanup path leak RX DMA
mappings?
It looks like we call skb_free_frag() for the RX buffers but we never call
dma_unmap_single(). Furthermore, because the rx_ring is freed before the
loop, any DMA addresses stored in the descriptors are lost, making it
impossible to unmap them.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does the TX teardown also
leak resources?
It appears it does not iterate over pending gq->skbs to unmap and free
them before freeing the array itself.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but is there a hardware race condition in
this error path?
Earlier in the loop, buffers are mapped and immediately exposed to the
running hardware by setting desc->desc.die_dt = DT_FEMPTY | DIE. If a
subsequent allocation in the batch fails, we jump to this error path to
revoke previously armed descriptors by clearing die_dt and calling
dma_unmap_single().
If the active hardware has already fetched the descriptor and started a
DMA write before we revoke it, will unmapping it lead to IOMMU faults or
memory corruption?
Should the descriptors only be armed after all allocations and mappings in
the batch have succeeded?
