How about when used as a netconsole? We do support netconsole over DSA

How? Who is supposed to bring up the master interface, and when?
You are right that this appears not to work when configured on the
kernel command line:
[ 6.836910] netpoll: netconsole: local port 4444
[ 6.841553] netpoll: netconsole: local IPv4 address 192.168.1.10
[ 6.847582] netpoll: netconsole: interface 'gphy'
[ 6.852305] netpoll: netconsole: remote port 9353
[ 6.857030] netpoll: netconsole: remote IPv4 address 192.168.1.254
[ 6.863233] netpoll: netconsole: remote ethernet address
b8:ac:6f:80:af:7e
[ 6.870134] netpoll: netconsole: device gphy not up yet, forcing it
[ 6.876428] netpoll: netconsole: failed to open gphy
[ 6.881412] netconsole: cleaning up
looking at my test notes from 2015 when it was added, I had only tested
dynamic netconsole while the network devices have already been brought
up which is why I did not catch it. Let me see if I can fix that somehow.
