Could you please add very simple devlink_port instance of flavour
PHYSICAL and link it with netdev? Having devlink instance without the
port related to the netdev looks a bit odd.
'Physical' seems inappropriate for a "host side of an IPU".
PCI PF if anything, but also I disagree that we need every devlink
instance to have a port. PTP clocks use devlink and are not networking
devices at all.
Sure, but here there is netdev. That's why I think it would be good to
have the related devlink object created as well, for the sake of model
completeness.
