No need to tell the hardware? Does it work in promiscuous mode by
default?
Yes and yes

That is not correct. Maybe you should add a IF_PORT_HOMEPLUG ?
There is already a driver (qca_spi, qcauart) for a similiar Homeplug
device (QCA7000), which also uses IF_PORT_10BASET. Should i change this
too or leave it because of resulting changes to userspace?

Is there an ID register you can read to determine what device you
actually have? If so, i suggest you verify the correct compatible is
used.
AFAIK the device doesn't have any kind of ID register.
@Jimmy Please correct me, if i'm wrong.
Best regards
Andrew
