Subject: Mistake in commit 0d961b3b52f566f823070ce2366511a7f64b928c breaks
 cpsw non dual_emac mode.

I believe commit 0d961b3b52f566f823070ce2366511a7f64b928c made a mistake
while correcting a bug.

It was correct to fix (which applies only in dual_emac mode):

since there i is used as an index into priv->slaves which is a 0 based array.

However the other two changes (which are only in non dual_emac mode):

are wrong since there i is actually the ALE port number, and port 0 is
the host port, while port 1 and up are the slave ports.

This should correct it back to working in non dual_emac mode.

Also make the comment point this out clearly to avoid future confusion
and fix a comment that was missing a "Don't".
