And it actually works at 50 MHz? Cool.

So if you do bother to add the DSA master in the example, can this be
&eth1 so that we could associate with the phandle below?

Is this a label or a node name? spi1 or spi@1?

I know this is the SPI controller and thus mostly irrelevant, but what
is "id = <1>"?

reg should match node index (port@2), here and everywhere below. As for
the net device labels, I'm not sure if the mismatch is deliberate there.

label for CPU port is not needed/used.
