Unfortunately this didn't sound good: But anyway the driver is present in the kernel and it works with some patches to activate it. Support was reverted just to avoid breaking DT backwards compatibility in some weird cases that don't affect any existing devices but may happen in theory in the future.
Just built full orangepi plus image using Igors marvellous build system selecting "next" kernel 4.13.3, pushed it onto the sd card and tadaa:
root@orangepiplus:~# uname -a
Linux orangepiplus 4.13.3-sunxi #1 SMP Sat Sep 23 16:37:58 CEST 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux
...
[Sat Sep 23 20:12:03 2017] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
Feels like I've been waiting years for this moment ... no 3.x kernel anymore on my orange pi Many thanx to all involved people who made this possible!
dwmac-sun8i driver ..... v6
