There can be multiple qca8k switch on the same system. Move the static qca8k_current_page to qca8k_priv and make it specific for each switch.

I just checked this and no. The priv bus we have in qca8k_set_page, points to the mdio ipq8064 priv struct. (or the gpio-bitbang driver I assume)
here from bus->priv and avoid changing a whole bunch of function signatures that are now getting both a qca8k_priv *and* a qca8k_mdio_cache set of pointers when you can just use back pointers to those.
Should we change the function to provide qca8k_priv directly? Or I just didn't understand your suggestion on how we can reduce the changes in this patch.
