Provide a list of valid protocols for which the driver will provide
it's deferred xmit handler.
When using DSA_TAG_PROTO_KSZ8795 protocol, it does not provide a
"connect" method, therefor ksz_connect() is not allocating ksz_tagger_data.
This avoids the following null pointer dereference:
ksz_connect_tag_protocol from dsa_register_switch+0x9ac/0xee0
dsa_register_switch from ksz_switch_register+0x65c/0x828
ksz_switch_register from ksz_spi_probe+0x11c/0x168
ksz_spi_probe from spi_probe+0x84/0xa8
spi_probe from really_probe+0xc8/0x2d8
Fixes: ab32f56a41 ("net: dsa: microchip: ptp: add packet transmission timestamping")

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.
