lan937x_check_device_id function compares the dev->chip_id with the
lan937x_switch_chip array and populate the some of the parameters of
struct ksz_dev. The dev->chip_id is populated using the dev->dev_ops-
>detect in the ksz_switch_register function. If lan937x_check_device_id
needs to be called in spi_probe, then chip_id has to be identified as
part of spi_probe function. Since ksz_switch_register handles the
identifying the chip_id, checking the device_id is part of switch_init.
 
 if (dev->dev_ops->detect(dev))
             return -EINVAL;
 
 ret = dev->dev_ops->init(dev);
 if (ret)
            return ret;


As per the comment, enable_spi_indirect_access function called twice
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220408232557.b62l3lksotq5vuvm@skbuf/
I have removed the enable_spi_indirect_access in the lan937x_setup
function in v13 patch 6. But it actually failed our regression.
The SPI indirect is required for accessing the Internal phy registers.
We have enabled it in lan937x_init before registering the
mdio_register. We need it for reading the phy id.
And another place enabled in lan937x_setup after lan937x_switch_reset
function. When I removed enabling in setup function, switch_reset
disables the spi indirecting addressing. Because of that further phy
register r/w fails. In Summary, we need to enable spi indirect access
in both the places, one for mdio_register and another after
switch_reset. 

Can I enable it both the places? Kindly suggest.
