Hi Jamie

So it is 6131? So part of the 6185 family. 

I see you have NET_TAG_DSA, but not NET_TAG_EDSA in your
configuration. Try swapping to EDSA. I even removed support for
TAG_DSA in one of the recent patches.

Please also can you get https://github.com/vivien/linux.git commit
323321875671dfe95b6b91ce051a74d415c7158c which will give you some
extra debug files /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx. 

The reg, stats, and atu would be interesting.
