If operating in dual emac mode all packets sent by the CPSW contain vlan headers with the reserved VID 0, which gets stripped away by all somewhat recent Linux versions. Operating systems without that behaviour will fail to communicate. This patch fixes that behaviour by disabling the VLAN_AWARE mode as already described by the comment above.
