Right. Its a 7-Port switch (88E6171R) with two CPU ports, each
connected to one of the ethernet controllers. Then port vlans split the
switch into two groups; (lan1,lan2,lan3,lan4,eth0) and (wan,eth1).

The same setup is used on other kirkwood based routers (e.g. Linksys
EA4500).

In my case it's a non-issue as the studid D-Link U-Boot doesn't even
setup a mac for eth1, so there's nothing to lose ;).

In addition I added a static counter for the allocated devs (to not
overwrite the pointers in port_platdev[]).

That seems to work, as now eth1 comes up and works (successfully got a
IP through DHCP).
