The KSZ9893, KSZ9563 and KSZ8563 all has the same chip id 0x00989300.
They belong to 3 port switch family. Differentiation is done based on
0x1F register. In the commit eee16b147121, there is no differentiation
based on 0x1F, device is selected based on chip id, all the three chips
will be identified as ksz9893 only. After the commit b44908095612,
KSZ8563 chips is identified based on 0x1F register.
