There's no need to run all the code on mt7530_setup_port5() if port 5 is
disabled. Run mt7530_setup_port5() if priv->p5_intf_sel is not P5_DISABLED
and remove the P5_DISABLED case from mt7530_setup_port5().

Stop initialising the interface variable as the remaining cases will always
call mt7530_setup_port5() with it initialised.

Again, not sure what is the problem, and how this solution addresses
that problem. I see Fixes tags for all patches, but I don't understand
what they fix, what didn't work before that works now?

It really depends on what you call working. Does this patch fix any feature of the switch that didn't work before? No.

Does it fix a bad logic introduced with the said commit? Yes.
