We know that the `lane == MV88E6393X_PORT0_LANE`, so we can pass `lane`
to mv88e6390_serdes_read() instead of MV88E6393X_PORT0_LANE.
All other occurances in this function are using the `lane` variable.
It seems I forgot to change it at this one place after refactoring.

Either do the Fixes tag according to the documented convention:
git show de776d0d316f7 --pretty=fixes
Fixes: de776d0d316f ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add support for mv88e6393x family")
or even better, drop it.

Why better to drop it?
To differentiate an essential/functional fix from a cosmetic fix. If all
cosmetic fixes got Fixes: tag that would get out of hands quickly.

IMO in this case the Fixes tag is not necessary beacuse the base commit
is not in any stable kernel yet.
But if the base commit was in a stable kernel already, and this
cosmetic fix was sent into net-next / net, I think the Fixes tag should
be there, in order for it to get applied into stable releases so that
future fixes could be applied cleanly.
Or am I wrong? This is how I understand this whole system...

This is not necessarily an argument that I would use, even if the commit
you are fixing is only in net-next, when it is a functional, and the
emphasis on the functional aspect of the code, providing a Fixes: tag is
really nice as it allows people that do backports or else to identify
the commits as an ensemble.
But if the base commit was in a stable kernel already, and this
cosmetic fix was sent into net-next / net, I think the Fixes tag should
be there, in order for it to get applied into stable releases so that
future fixes could be applied cleanly.

Your reasoning is not wrong, for cosmetic changes that do not result in
functional changes, I would say that the Fixes: is optional.
