Wow that was an unexpected development from a stray question
from my side!

Your attention to detail is much appreciated, as this will help migration
away from swconfig in OpenWrt.

I had the same issue: all code I've written for the RTL8366RB family
is based on code dumps and no public documentation. Sometimes
I wonder if Realtek even documented it or just made the proprietary
driver and shipped without any documentation.
