I have x86 platforms using mv88e6xxx with platform data. Simple
systems do work, the platforms i have only make use of the internal
PHYs. This is partially because of history. DSA is older than the
adoption of DT. The mv88e6xxx driver and DSA used to be purely
platform data driven, and we have not yet broken that.
