Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: net: lan966x: Accept standard ethernet prefixes

From: Linus Walleij <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 07 May 2026 11:26:01 +0200

The dsa.yaml and ethernet-switch.yaml bindings recommend
prefixing ethernet switches and ports with "ethernet-" so
make the LAN966x do the same.
