Port 5 is often used as a user port as well, eg. on the BPi-R3 where
it serves to provide SerDes for the 2nd SFP cage.
On other boards (e.g. Netgear WAX-206) it is used to connect a 2.5G
PHY used as WAN port.

Hence just stating that port 5 "a CPU port" could be a bit misleading
as it is not always used as a CPU port.
