You need to say something in the commit message. One obvious thing is
to justify not using the at803x driver, since

is in the Atheros OUI range.

I guess you are new to mainline network. Please read:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html

Section 1.6.4.

Please read the documentation of dev_err_probe() and this fix the
obvious problem with this.

This needs an explanation. Why register two fixed clocks, which you
never use? Why not put these two clocks in DT?

This needs an explanation. It is also somewhat like
qca808x_link_change_notify(). Is it really sufficient to only do this
reset FIFO during a soft reset, or is it needed when ever the link
changes?

You also appear to be missing device tree bindings.
