The idea was to make the read_switch_id a function to check if the
switch is compatible... But yhea now that i think about it doesn't
really make sense.

(Just for reference I just sent v4 as I got a report from kernel test
bot... it's really just this series with a change in 0002 patch that set
the struct for ops as a pointer... didn't encounter this with gcc but it
seems kernel test bot use some special config...)
