Tried all user ports being affine to the RGMII CPU port, that works too.

Did you do black-box testing after removing the code, or were you
also able to independently confirm that the configurations done by
cpu_port_config() were later overwritten? I'm trying to disambiguate
between "works by coincidence" and "works because the analysis was
correct".

I did my testing, merely to make sure we didn't miss anything as Russell already stated that the configuration from cpu_port_config() is later overwritten.

I could put some dev_info around to confirm the code path that overwrites the configuration.
