Okay, besides the DT mistakes you mention below (changes are pushed to the 
same branch), I've worked out out what my problem was here. The switch was 
probed before the ethernet device is available, so mv88e6xxx_probe() has 
to back out with EPROBE_DEFER at mv88e6xxx_register_switch().

However mv88e6xxx_mdio_unregister() doesn't tidy up fully. The following 
lets me boot, but I'm not really clear what the usleep is helping solve 
and don't like it:

diff --git a/drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx/chip.c b/drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx/chip.c

+	del_timer(&chip->ppu_timer);
+	usleep_range(1000, 2000);

  	mdiobus_unregister(bus);

  	if (chip->mdio_np)

FWIW I now get:

However, nothing's changed since 4.7-rc7 in terms of getting the switch 
to work.

Some have suggested I should be more worried about being able to shift 
packets than getting the LEDs working, but where's the fun in that? :)

Okay. Frames sent from the port are EDSA-tagged (which isn't exactly 
surprising), but I'm yet to see the switch receive 0xdada frames. Even 
with the net-next branch which uses DSA_TAG_PROTO_EDSA for all chip types.

However, the ethertype is reflecting the port:-

lan1/5 : ethertype Unknown (0xc028), length 176:
lan2/7 : ethertype Unknown (0xc038), length 176:
lan3/0 : ethertype Unknown (0xc000), length 176:
lan4/1 : ethertype Unknown (0xc008), length 176:
wan/2  : ethertype Unknown (0xc010), length 176:

My other one of these routers, running OpenWRT / Linux 3.3.8, shows the 
same ethertypes, which suggests that the switch is still in DSA tagging 
mode. I'll poke around further and see what I find.
