Can you share your network configuration again with me?

OK, I suspect what has changed is this commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=8fab459e69abfd04a66d76423d18ba853fced4ab
which, if I remember your configuration correctly means that you now have proper DSA interfaces and so all of the wan, lan1-lan4 interfaces can now run a proper networking stack unlike before where you had to do this via the DSA master network device (eth0). This also means that you should run your DHCP server/client on the bridge master network device now.
