Oh, that was definitely a mistake for me to reference
ethernet-switch-port.yaml. And that was exactly requested of me when
Vladimir helped guide me down this path:

"""
6. The ethernet-switch.yaml will have "$ref: ethernet-switch-port.yaml#"
   and "$ref: dsa-port.yaml". The dsa-port.yaml schema will *not* have
   "$ref: ethernet-switch-port.yaml#", just its custom additions.
   I'm not 100% on this, but I think there will be a problem if:
   - dsa.yaml references ethernet-switch.yaml
     - ethernet-switch.yaml references ethernet-switch-port.yaml
   - dsa.yaml also references dsa-port.yaml
     - dsa-port.yaml references ethernet-switch-port.yaml
   because ethernet-switch-port.yaml will be referenced twice. Again,
   not sure if this is a problem. If it isn't, things can be simpler,
   just make dsa-port.yaml reference ethernet-switch-port.yaml, and skip
   steps 2 and 3 since dsa-port.yaml containing just the DSA specifics
   is no longer problematic.
"""

I might have been testing to see if this was necessary and since I
didn't notice any dt_binding_check errors this might have slipped into
the patch set. But my intent was to reference both here and remove the
reference in dsa-port.yaml.
