It reads like this patch should be backported to 5.10 and 5.15 stable
branches. While patches 1 and 2 are cleanups. In which case you should
reports just patch 3 against net/master first, we'll send it to Linus at
the end of the week and then you can send the cleanups on top for -next.

One extra question below.

Why care about the return code of this regmap access but not the ones
inside the *port_set_status() calls?
