Besides the VMDq proposal, I got few more comments for you.

It looks a bit confusing to me, to claim it as a "device": it's neither a
physical nic device nor a virtio net device. Something like "vswitch_unit",
or even "vswitch" is better and enough.

Seems that you forgot to include the file to implment all those ops for
"switch" vswitch mode? I mean, I just see a vs_lookup_n_fwd implmentation
of VMDq.

Note that "vid" does not equal "port". They are two different counters
and both start from 0. That means, you will get unexpected results from
following piece of code ---->
