After looking through a couple hundred pages of register documentation
for KSZ9477 and KSZ9567 I find only registers that are aligned to
their width. In my testing the KSZ9567 works fine with and without the
patch. The only downside is that all of the unaligned registers
needlessly show up in the debugfs regmap, this doesn't really matter
though. As long as it fixes the issues on KSZ87xx this looks fine to
me.

I tested the patch on the KSZ9567, not anything else FWIW:
