Yes that is not exactly good, it means that the RGMII interface between
the internal and external switches is not properly configured.

I actually plan to remove the use cpu_port entirely, or actually only
use it as a "hint" of which CPU ports are capable of supporting Broadcom
tags. A better change for now would be not to use dev->cpu_port, but
instead use ds->dst->cpu_dp->index like what b53_br_join() does.

Humm, that I don't really understand because this is turning on managed
mode which only influences how multicast addresses are processed, it
should not make a different for non-MC traffic AFAICT.

Configuration may have to be tuned on both switches unfortunately
because both RGMII interfaces would have the ability to configure
delays. Do you have a way to dump what the original firmware settings
for the register that b53_adjust_link() modifies such that we can see
what was previous configured?
Thanks!
