I suppose that dsa_switch_rcv() could test for the presence of a metadata_dst
and treat that generically if present, without unnecessarily calling down into
the tagging protocol ->rcv() call. The assumption being that the metadata_dst
is always formatted (by the DSA master) in a vendor-agnostic way.
