It maps to bulk.

My interpretation of this hardware is that it uses a direct lookup table
without a "valid/invalid" bit per entry. Once DSCP is enabled in the
trust order, the switch performs the lookup for every packet; it cannot
transparently skip a specific DSCP value to fall back to the next
selector.

Therefore, "deleting" an entry practically remaps it to the default
(Bulk/Best Effort) priority. This matches the logic we use in the KSZ
driver.
