I set up a bisect script to run overnight, it landed here:

    98a01119608d21e0ed95a544071beabb353240ed is the first bad commit

        net: sparx5: add compatible string for lan969x

        Add lan9691-switch compatible string to mchp_sparx5_match. Guard it with
        IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_LAN969X_SWITCH) to make sure Sparx5 can be compiled on
        its own.
