While adding a new attribute for the DSA CPU port linked means more
added complexity, I still believe it's the right thing to do if that's
what would be acceptable upstream and hence significantly reduce the
burden of having to maintain and forward-port the patch locally in the
long run.
Personally I perceive the use of the existing 'set link' attribute to
be sound and aligned with it's use in other contexts, but that's most
certainly a matter of taste.
