This Series add Support for the mt7531 switch on Bananapi R2 Pro board.

This board uses port5 of the switch to conect to the gmac0 of the
rk3568 SoC.

Currently CPU-Port is hardcoded in the mt7530 driver to port 6.

Compared to v1 the reset-Patch was dropped as it was not needed and
CPU-Port-changes are completely rewriten based on suggestions/code from
Vladimir Oltean (many thanks to this).
In DTS Patch i only dropped the status-property that was not
needed/ignored by driver.

Due to the Changes i also made a regression Test on mt7623 bpi-r2 using
mt7530 with cpu-port 6. Tests were done directly (ipv4 config on dsa user
port) and with vlan-aware bridge including vlan that was tagged outgoing
on dsa user port.

Main change is that i now include the binding-changes into the patchset which
i posted separately.

Frank Wunderlich (6):
  dt-bindings: net: dsa: convert binding for mediatek switches
  net: dsa: mt7530: rework mt7530_hw_vlan_{add,del}
  net: dsa: mt7530: rework mt753[01]_setup
  net: dsa: mt7530: get cpu-port via dp->cpu_dp instead of constant
  dt-bindings: net: dsa: make reset optional and add rgmii-mode to
    mt7531
  arm64: dts: rockchip: Add mt7531 dsa node to BPI-R2-Pro board

I think the issue is more for the description itself.

Devicetree is only meant to describe the hardware and does in general don't
care how any firmware (Linux-kernel, *BSD, etc) handles it. So going with
"the kernel does it this way" is not a valid reason for a binding change ;-) .

Instead in general want to reason that there are boards without this reset
facility and thus make it optional for those.

For clarification, the reset gpio line is purely to reset the phy.
If having the switch driver own the reset gpio instead of the gmac
breaks initialization that means there's a bug in the gmac driver
handling phy init.
In testing I've seen issues moving the reset line to the mdio node
with other phys and the stmmac gmac driver, so I do believe this is
the case.

just a gentle ping, is anything missing/wrong?

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html#how-can-i-tell-the-status-of-a-patch-i-ve-sent

In your case:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=639420&state=*

I haven't double checked but even if the feedback you received was
waved the patch didn't apply when it was posted, so you gotta repost.
