Ok, if there aren't any objections, I will propose a v3 in 30 minutes or
so, with 'conduit' being the primary iproute2 keyword and 'master'
defined in the man page as a synonym for it, and the ip-link program
printing just 'conduit' in the help text but parsing both, and printing
just 'conduit' in the json output. At least this term has some history
of being used in Documentation/networking/dsa/dsa.rst, although not
unambiguously so. There is one paragraph in there which also mentions
DSA (cascade) ports as conduits. Though I really don't have any better
idea.
