You have this backwards. '$dsa.yaml#/$defs/base' can't be extended. 
Perhaps '$defs/ethernet-ports' would be a better name.

This node at the top level needs 'additionalProperties: false' assuming 
we don't allow extra properties in 'ports' nodes. If we do, then we'll 
need to be able to reference the 'ports' schema to extend it like is 
done with dsa-ports.yaml.

One blank line.
