I didn't see any router with separated Rx/Tx LEDs, but it still sounds
like a valid case.

We could add flags for that in proposed field like:
trigger-sources = <&port (SPEED_1000 | LINK | TX)>;

Or add separated field for non-speed flags like:
trigger-sources = <&port SPEED_1000 (LINK | TX)>;

Let's see what DT experts say about it.
