[PATCH net-next 2/4] dt-bindings: net: dsa: the adjacent DSA port must appear first in "link" property
From: Vladimir Oltean
Date: Fri Sep 13 2024 - 09:16:43 EST
If we don't add something along these lines, it is absolutely impossible
to know, for trees with 3 or more switches, which links represent direct
connections and which don't.
I've studied existing mainline device trees, and it seems that the rule
has been respected thus far. I've actually tested such a 3-switch setup
with the Turris MOX.
