[RFC net] net: dsa: Add missing reference counting

[Florian Fainelli]

If we are probed through platform_data we would be intentionally
dropping the reference count on master after dev_to_net_device()
incremented it. If we are probed through Device Tree,
of_find_net_device() does not do a dev_hold() at all.

Ensure that the DSA master device is properly reference counted by
holding it as soon as the CPU port is successfully initialized and later
released during dsa_switch_release_ports(). dsa_get_tag_protocol() does
a short de-reference, so we hold and release the master at that time,
too.

Fixes: 83c0afaec7b7 ("net: dsa: Add new binding implementation")
