I didn't have any DGS-1210 switches back then. Now I have hundreds.

It looks like an interesting submission, still relevant but it
requires a v2 rebasing and with the suggested changes.

It uses SOC := rtl8380 while all existing dgs-1210 F1 variants use
rtl8382 (except for the pending -52 variant). The commit didn't
mention why that happened.
I'm not sure which one is correct here. However, if it is really a
different SoC and with what we currently know, we could create a
generic rtl83xx_d-link_dgs-1210.dtsi as the -52 variant uses even a
more different SoC (rtl8393). They share a lot of stuff like flash
layout and gpios (and the vendor firmware even uses the same image). I
could do some generic and family review but I only have -28 and -52
variants.
