The linked-linked dt-patch from Bastien adapts the pinctrl-names
unconditionally for all KSZ switches, while he writes within the commit
message, that only KSZ8463 should be affected. Therefore the
straps-rxd-gpios was added only for the microchip,ksz8463.
Furthermore the pinctrl-names should be either:
- default
or
- default
- reset
since the 'reset' pinctrl is optional if no strapping pins are
connected.
So IMHO the correct fix should be a dt-bindings fix.
