No wait this isn't correctly stated. I was too tired.
OpenWrt adds a VLAN to each port so we get VLAN tags on all frames.
So when I ping with ping -s 1472 -M do 192.168.1.220 (command missing)
this first turns into a 1500 byte ICMP package (as seen), when it
reaches the Marvell switch it adds VLAN_ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN
1500 + 18 + 4 = 1522 and then 6 more bytes for DSA tag ending up
with 1528 bytes. Then the Broadcom switch adds another DSA tag
of 8 bytes, resulting in 1536 bytes reaching Linux, the maximum.
tcpdump (on the target) gives this confirming the suspicion:
00:05:03.678271 AF Unknown (1429722180), length 1532:

3d93 = First four bytes are the last two bytes of the destination
ethernet address I don't know why the first four are missing,
but it sure explains why the paket is 1532 bytes and not 1536.
bcae c56b a83b = source ethernet address
8874 02fd 0004 = Broadcom enetsw DSA tag
8100 0000 = VLAN 802.1Q header
dada 0000 c000 0fff 0800 = EDSA tag for the Marvell (outer) switch,
0800 is the ethertype obviously
Next follows the contents of the ping packet as it appears if
we dump it on the DSA interface such as tcpdump -i lan1
etc, there we get the stripped out packet.
At the end 4 bytes of FCS.
I will add this to the commit so it's clear how this works...
Yours,
Linus Walleij
