I ported the TP-Link WL-WA83RE v1 from ar71xx to ath79 and noticed that the LAN LED doesn't turn off if the network cable is removed. The kernel doesn't detect the link status, the interface is always up.
AR7240 seems to be built [[https://forum.openwrt.org/uploads/default/original/2X/b/b2fcb0e740bc2232dc1bf8e20fa787ad71f06284.png|like this]], I don't understand what MAC/PHY is connected to what but ethernet works if [[https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/0b84b892516942f1b78e53665168c81aaa7f5256/target/linux/ath79/dts/ar7240_tplink_tl-wa.dtsi#L12|eth1 is enabled]]. I think the port status is only readable through the GE1 MDIO bus, but it isn't initialized. On ar71xx the switch gets initialized, on ath79 I could only see it if I add eth0 to the DTS, but that creates a second, unusable network interface and still doesn't connect the switch port's link status to the kernel's eth interface.
This probably also affects TP-Link TL-WA701ND v1, TL-WA730RE v1, TL-WA801ND v1 and TL-WA901ND v1.
