Sorry to be this late for the reply.  I finally got hold of a KSZ8895 board that
works with my SoC board to confirm the network communication.

As expected the KSZ8895 board works correctly as the chip uses the same
tail tagging feature in KSZ8795, and I did verify that board is working.

One thing to debug this problem is to dump the MIB counters.  Use the ethtool
utility to show MIB counters of both ports:

ethtool -S lan3
ethtool -S eth0

Assuming eth0 is the MAC controller that drives the switch, the receive counters of
the host port of the switch should match the transmit counters of lan3, and vice versa.
