Oh, I don't have any devices with an AR8216. Both the Meraki MX60(W) and
the WNDR4700 have the AR8327. I only mentioned AR8216, because that's
the driver module in OpenWRT/LEDE which supports the AR8327 [0], [1].
As for emac and AR8327N: It will come right up, once the QCA8337-only guard
is removed from qca8k.c [2]. [QCA8K_ID_QCA8337 is 0x13, AR8327N is 0x12]:

No, I didn't add it, because technically the emac.c has its own private
implementation for just the listed PHYs and they won't need PHYLIB.
However, once you had selected a PHY/DSA driver, PHYLIB was pulled in
automatically. So, I never spotted this because I always had the
broadcom.c PHY driver selected.

Yes, the PHY is just in the BMCR_PDOWN state. I can do the same
on the WNDR4700, by messing with u-boot:
| => mii write 0 0 0x0800
| => mii dump
| 0. (ffff) -- PHY control register --
| (8000:8000) 0.15 = 1 reset
| (4000:4000) 0.14 = 1 loopback
| (2040:2040) 0. 6,13 = b11 speed selection = ??? Mbps
| (1000:1000) 0.12 = 1 A/N enable
| (0800:0800) 0.11 = 1 power-down
| (0400:0400) 0.10 = 1 isolate
| (0200:0200) 0. 9 = 1 restart A/N
| (0100:0100) 0. 8 = 1 duplex = full
| (0080:0080) 0. 7 = 1 collision test enable
| (003f:003f) 0. 5- 0 = 63 (reserved)
On the Meraki, the port disabled by the bootloader.
The reset is still needed.

No, the Meraki and the modified WNDR4700 still refuse to work. Just >one<
of the phys at address 0-4 need to be powered down to get the following
error:
[ 4.425618] DSA: switch 0 0 parsed
[ 4.429034] DSA: tree 0 parsed
[ 4.435416] qca8k: probe of 4ef600c00.ethern:10 failed with error -5
I'll report back, what exactly is causing the error in this case.

That's good to know. On the AR8327, each of the five phys just map to one
of the four lan or wan ports.

Oh, I forgot to say that I changed it. It uses the dt node name, just
like everybody else.
