So the actual code is:

	for (u = 0; u < ARRAY_SIZE(lan9303_mib); u++) {
       		ret = lan9303_read_switch_reg(chip,
			      		      lan9303_mib[u].offset + poff,
					      &reg);

Could this be written as

	for (u = 0; u < ARRAY_SIZE(lan9303_mib); u++) {
		ret = lan9303_read_switch_port(chip, port, lan9303_mib[u].offset, &reg);

It is then clear you are reading the statistics from a port register.
