You are not saving anything here by dynamically allocating the memory,
since you do it for all ports. So just make it a member of ds with
size DSA_MAX_PORTS. I would then call this array structure ports.

Humm, i also think keeping it in dsa_slave_priv is wrong, if you have
defined the structure in the global include/net/dsa.h. dsa_switch is a
better place for it.
