Objection: dsa_switch_teardown has:

	if (ds->slave_mii_bus && ds->ops->phy_read)
		mdiobus_unregister(ds->slave_mii_bus);

The realtek_smi_setup_mdio function does:

	smi->ds->slave_mii_bus = smi->slave_mii_bus;

so I would expect that this would result in a double unregister on some
systems.

I haven't went through your new driver, but I wonder whether you have
the phy_read and phy_write methods implemented? Maybe that is the
difference?
