After looking into ethernet I've found several issues.
1. skew delay settings were not ported from old driver to dts for 
nas4220b board
2. kernel config in you patches (accidentally?) disabled bridge support
3. driver crashes if you try to disable unused gmac in dts because of 
access to uninitialized port(0|1) member of struct gemini_ethernet

So after fixing all above ethernet on nas4220b is working ok.

Can you confirm that after enabling bridge support back (just remove 
CONFIG_BRIDGE from gemini kernel config and rebuild) ethernet comes up 
on D-link boards? That is with default network config.
