My board has a shared gpio-reset between gmac and switch, so both will resetted if it is asserted. Currently it is set to the gmac and is aquired exclusive. Adding it to switch results in 2 problems:

- due to exclusive and already mapped to gmac, switch driver exits as it cannot get the reset-gpio again.
- if i drop the reset from gmac and add to switch, it resets the gmac and this takes too long for switch to get up. Of course i can increase the wait time after reset,but dropping reset here was the easier way.

Using reset only on gmac side brings the switch up.

Argh, seems i accidentally removed this part and have not recognized while checking :(

It should only change description of reg for ports to:

"Port address described must be 5 or 6 for CPU port and from 0 to 5 for user ports."
