Move MIB polling start from probe() to dsa_setup() so that it can
be conditionally enabled based on the actual switch family support,
avoiding attempts to enable it on unsupported switch families.

I didn't see this patch being used afterwards (and patch 6 seems missing).

I'm not against the patch, but if you don't use it, please post it in
another series.

Ans: yes, as you can see from x/6, there should be 6 patches in this

series. The 6th patch was not sent successfully due to an email configuration

issue. in the future submissions, we will try our best to ensure the integrity of

the patches. thanks.
