I agree. Does the following snippet looks OK?


    #ifndef CONFIG_NET_DSA_MV88E6XXX_GLOBAL2
            if (mv88e6xxx_has(chip, MV88E6XXX_FLAG_GLOBAL2)) {
                    dev_err(chip->dev, "Missing support for Global 2 registers\n");
                    return -EOPNOTSUPP;
            }
    #endif /* CONFIG_NET_DSA_MV88E6XXX_GLOBAL2 */


Thanks,

        Vivien
