Hi,

Does it make sense to directly convert this board to the upstream DSA 
driver for the Marvell 88E6060 switch:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.10.72/source/drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6060.c
It looks like our swconfig driver creates a bridge over all ports and 
the DSA driver only allows communication between the individual port and 
the CPU port.

I do not know how much effort this is and if you have the device for 
testing.
