Hi Vladimir,
Thank you for the feedback.

I see a slight discrepancy between what the documentation claims the
hardware does, and what the driver claims it does. The documentation
seems to say that setting this bit is what allows the vlan->untag bits
to take effect.
The comment was referencing an accidentally deleted line that enables
double tagging:

	/* set up switch for double tagging to simulate vlan unawareness */
	regmap_set_bits(esw->regmap, MT7628_ESW_REG_SGC2,
			FIELD_PREP(MT7628_ESW_SGC2_DOUBLE_TAG_EN,
			MT7628_ESW_PORTS_NOCPU));

I only re-tested untagged traffic before sending this in. Apologies for
that. I will expand my testing procedures to prevent this from happening
again.
A VLAN-unaware port means that when an ingress packet comes with 802.1Q
TPID 0x8100 and VID X from the wire, this VLAN header will be ignored by
the switch, and the PVID of the port will be pushed as an outer tag, for
any value of X, regardless of whether it is in the VLAN table or not.
Does it do that?
That is what is intended to happen and it does do that if the
DOUBLE_TAG_EN is properly set. Will be fixed in later revisions.
