This patch extends the flags of the phy that's being connected with the
port specific flags of the switch port.

This is needed to handle a port specific erratum of the KSZ8873 switch,
which is added in a later patch.

I don't think this has any benefit. phy_attach_direct() does this
internally:

        phydev->dev_flags |= flags;

which means the above change is effectively doing:

        phydev->dev_flags |= phydev->dev_flags;

So, are you sure you need this?
