There is line:
priv = devm_kzalloc(&mdiodev->dev, sizeof(*priv), GFP_KERNEL);
and after that follows chunk:

So function of_device_get_match_data() takes as its argument NULL
pointer as 'priv' structure is at this stage zeroed, and which cause
above kernel crash. priv->dev is filled lines below:
> priv->bus = mdiodev->bus;
> priv->dev = &mdiodev->dev;

I would propose following patch:
diff --git a/drivers/net/dsa/qca/qca8k-8xxx.c b/drivers/net/dsa/qca/qca8k-8xxx.c
index 1d3e7782a71f..614950a5878a 100644

*/
priv = devm_kzalloc(&mdiodev->dev, sizeof(*priv), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!priv)
return -ENOMEM;
+ priv->dev = &mdiodev->dev;
priv->info = of_device_get_match_data(priv->dev);
priv->bus = mdiodev->bus;
- priv->dev = &mdiodev->dev;
priv->reset_gpio = devm_gpiod_get_optional(priv->dev, "reset",
GPIOD_ASIS);
if (IS_ERR(priv->reset_gpio))
return PTR_ERR(priv->reset_gpio);
which fixes above crash.
