I don't see any switchdev interface. How does it get into bridge mode?

Nothing. If the link is down, they are meaningless. If something is
accessing them when the link is down, that code is broken. So i
suppose you could give them poison values to help find your broken
code.

Nothing forces you to run the scheme checker. It is not run by the
kernel before it starts accessing the DT blob. You should assume it is
invalid until you have proven it to be valid.
