Perfect! If I understand correctly, there's this code - specific to 
MT7531 and MT7988 ports being used as CPU ports - which runs in addition 
to what's in mt753x_phylink_mac_config():

	mt7530_write(priv, MT7530_PMCR_P(port),
		     PMCR_CPU_PORT_SETTING(priv->id));

This should be put on mt753x_phylink_mac_config(), under priv->id == 
ID_MT7531, priv->id == ID_MT7988, and dsa_is_cpu_port(ds, port) checks?
