There is some form a linking going, our device names show that:

9: lan5@eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN mode 
DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether da:87:2a:03:cf:16 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

But here br0 is absolutely required, we have to say which bridge the
slave port should be a member of.

But what good is eth0 in

tc bind dev sw0p0 queue 0 dev eth0 queue 16

As i said suggesting, you have to somehow verify that eth0 is the
conduit interface sw0p0 is using. Which makes the parameter pointless.
Determine it from the sw0p0 somehow.
