Arınç reports that on his MT7621AT Unielec U7621-06 board and MT7623NI
Bananapi BPI-R2, packets received by the CPU over mt7530 switch port 0
(of which this driver acts as the DSA master) are not processed
correctly by software. More precisely, they arrive without a DSA tag
(in packet or in the hwaccel area - skb_metadata_dst()), so DSA cannot
demux them towards the switch's interface for port 0. Traffic from other
ports receives a skb_metadata_dst() with the correct port and is demuxed
properly.

Looking at mtk_poll_rx(), it becomes apparent that this driver uses the
skb vlan hwaccel area:

	union {
		u32		vlan_all;
		struct {
			__be16	vlan_proto;
			__u16	vlan_tci;
		};
	};

as a temporary storage for the VLAN hwaccel tag, or the DSA hwaccel tag.
If this is a DSA master it's a DSA hwaccel tag, and finally clears up
the skb VLAN hwaccel header.

I'm guessing that the problem is the (mis)use of API.
skb_vlan_tag_present() looks like this:

 #define skb_vlan_tag_present(__skb)	(!!(__skb)->vlan_all)

So if both vlan_proto and vlan_tci are zeroes, skb_vlan_tag_present()
returns precisely false. I don't know for sure what is the format of the
DSA hwaccel tag, but I surely know that lowermost 3 bits of vlan_proto
are 0 when receiving from port 0:

	unsigned int port = vlan_proto & GENMASK(2, 0);

If the RX descriptor has no other bits set to non-zero values in
RX_DMA_VTAG, then the call to __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag() will not, in
fact, make the subsequent skb_vlan_tag_present() return true, because
it's implemented like this:

static inline void __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(struct sk_buff *skb,
					  __be16 vlan_proto, u16 vlan_tci)
{
	skb->vlan_proto = vlan_proto;
	skb->vlan_tci = vlan_tci;
}

What we need to do to fix this problem (assuming this is the problem) is
to stop using skb->vlan_all as temporary storage for driver affairs, and
just create some local variables that serve the same purpose, but
hopefully better. Instead of calling skb_vlan_tag_present(), let's look
at a boolean has_hwaccel_tag which we set to true when the RX DMA
descriptors have something. Disambiguate based on netdev_uses_dsa()
whether this is a VLAN or DSA hwaccel tag, and only call
__vlan_hwaccel_put_tag() if we're certain it's a VLAN tag.

Arınç confirms that the treatment works, so this validates the
assumption.
