There's nothing in the u-boot code for the CN9130-CRB that cares about 
the switch so I don't think there's any issue ABI wise. We are working 
on our own CN9130 based router with a L2 switch but it's at a point we 
can follow whatever upstream decide is the final schema.

In terms of my personal preference the schema quoted up thread has the 
pattern  '^(ethernet-)?switch(@.*)?$' (i.e. the 'ethernet-' part is 
optional) so I'd personally prefer switch0 at 6 -> switch at 6 but that's only 
a slight preference because I deal with Ethernet switches day in day out.
