The dsa.yaml bindings had references that can apply to non-dsa switches. To
prevent duplication of this information, keep the dsa-specific information
inside dsa.yaml and move the remaining generic information to the newly
created ethernet-switch.yaml.

v1 -> v2
  * No net change, but deletions from dsa.yaml included the changes for
    "addionalProperties: true" under ports and "unevaluatedProperties:
    true" under port.

I vaguely remember Krzysztof saying during other reviews that "Device
Tree Bindings" in the title is superfluous. Suggest: "Generic Ethernet
Switch".

This description was taken from the DSA switch schema and not adapted
for the generic Ethernet switch schema.

Suggest instead:

  Ethernet switches are multi-port Ethernet controllers. Each port has
  its own number and is represented as its own Ethernet controller.
  The minimum required functionality is to pass packets to software.
  They may or may not be able to forward packets autonomously between
  ports.

(this should also clarify if it's okay to reference ethernet-switch.yaml
from drivers which don't speak switchdev, which I believe it is).

(my suggestion is open to further comments for improvement)

I wonder if you actually meant dsa-port.yaml and not ethernet-controller.yaml?
