NetCP driver has a plug-in module architecture where each of the NetCP sub-modules exist as a loadable kernel module which plug in to the netcp core. These sub-modules are represented as "netcp-devices" in the dts bindings. It is mandatory to have the ethernet switch sub-module for the ethernet interface to be operational. Any other sub-module like the PA is optional.
What are you doing to prevent/discourage proprietary binary only sub-modules?
