In this particular driver, the setup function contains this:

	/* Make sure that port 0 is the cpu port */
	if (!dsa_is_cpu_port(ds, 0)) {
		dev_err(chip->dev, "port 0 is not the CPU port\n");
		return -EINVAL;
	}

I take this to mean that port 0 is guaranteed to be the cpu port.  Of
course, it can't hurt to be thorough just in case that check is ever
removed.
