> The mv88e6xxx driver still writes arbitrary values in the Global 1
> Control 2 register at setup, which layout differs a lot between chips.
> This results in an inconsistent configuration, for example with the
> Remote Management Unit (RMU).
> 
> The first patch adds an operation for the Cascade Port bits, the second
> patch sets the device number in the device mapping function and the
> third patch adds an operation to correctly disable the RMU.
