The ports on the receiving end of the link can be identified by any number,
not necessarily 0 and 1. Since at this point in time we only have 1 use case
for this I'll merge the generic and panel specific dt-schemas together, for
simplicity.
Perhaps we can split them back once we have a second use case?
I'll send a new patch shortly.

Thank you very much for your help and your patience!
