Apologies, I believe this patch is not 100% complete, there might be
something missing. Please keep this on hold, there is something not
working as expected that I am currently investigating.

My goal was to create an of_node device for the switch ports, which did
create under the /sys/devices/platform:

ls /sys/devices/platform/8000000.ethernet:ethernet-ports:port@1/
driver_override               power                         uevent
modalias                      subsystem                     waiting_for_supplier
of_node                       supplier:platform:104044.phy

However it is still missing under

find /sys/devices/platform/bus@...00/8000000.ethernet/net/eth0/ -name *of_node*

I will figure out how to do that and propose a new version.

Regards,

Hiago.
