It appears that I do not need to set any phy-mode on internal sw's
port 0 or external sw's port 8. Also, you were right about internal port 0 to
be configured as tagged member of the vlan. It was indeed set to untagged!
LEDE lacks aw way to configure this. But I can do this via a post script.
After making above changes I was able to ping the router using physical port on
external switch. However, the ping dies out after few seconds. I'm try to figure
out the cause for this. Al least, I have some connectivity!

This will be quite helpful as current implementation creates some confusion
when there are more than one cpu ports.

I tried to remove setting of SM_SW_FWD_MODE but no go. Even GPL source
sets it for 53012. For now I'll leave it until I get back to it.
