As Jonas (on CC) pointed out, I only see this being used in the swconfig b53 driver which uses the label to identify the cpu port. https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=blob;f=target/linux/generic/files/drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_common.c;h=87d731ec3e2a868dc8389f554b1dc9ab42c30be2;hb=HEAD#l1508 Maybe this got into DSA dt-bindings unchecked before it was decided to move forward with DSA instead of swconfig on Linux.
