[ Upstream commit 7e1301ed18 ]
The VLANs and PVIDs on the RTL8366 utilizes a "member
configuration" (MC) which is largely unexplained in the
code.
This set-up requires a special ordering: rtl8366_set_pvid()
must be called first, followed by rtl8366_set_vlan(),
else the MC will not be properly allocated. Relax this
by factoring out the code obtaining an MC and reuse
the helper in both rtl8366_set_pvid() and
rtl8366_set_vlan() so we remove this strict ordering
requirement.
In the process, add some better comments and debug prints
so people who read the code understand what is going on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
