As far as I understand, the patch you mentioned swapped eth0 and eth1 in hardware. So the CPU's ethernet ports were renamed. This is not the case here. All hardware ports remain untouched, it's just the assignment of the CPU's ports to the external switch ports which is changed. (In fact, only /etc/config/network is touched, but will remain fully compatible to any config which is backup'ed/restored during a sysupgrade) Best regards, P.
