Subject: ARM: dts: armada-388-clearfog: number LAN ports properly

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

commit d9fd3c918114cfd3995947339549c7341181efb0 upstream.

Currently, the ports as seen from the rear number as:

	eth0 sfp lan5 lan4 lan3 lan2 lan1 lan6

which is illogical - this came about because the rev 2.0 boards have the
LEDs on the front for the DSA switch (lan5-1) reversed.  Rev 2.1 boards
fixed the LED issue, and the Clearfog case numbers the lan ports
increasing from left to right.

Maintaining this illogical numbering causes confusion, with reports that
"my link isn't coming up" and "my connection negotiates 10base-Half"
both of which are due to people thinking that the port next to the SFP
is lan1.

Fix this by renumbering the ports to match people's expectations.
