In /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNELS=="spi2.0", DRIVERS=="sja1105", ATTR{phys_port_name}=="p0", NAME="lan0"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNELS=="spi2.0", DRIVERS=="sja1105", ATTR{phys_port_name}=="p1", NAME="lan1"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNELS=="spi2.0", DRIVERS=="sja1105", ATTR{phys_port_name}=="p2", NAME="lan2"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNELS=="spi2.0", DRIVERS=="sja1105", ATTR{phys_port_name}=="p3", NAME="lan3"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNELS=="spi2.0", DRIVERS=="sja1105", ATTR{phys_port_name}=="p4", NAME="lan4"

No objection to your naming choice. Just want to point out that we
encourage DSA users to use the same naming infrastructure as any other
net device. The device tree labels mostly come from deeply embedded
environments where a full udev implementation is missing (like OpenWrt).
If you don't have that excuse, you can try to leave the labels in the
device tree out and set up predictable names through an udev rule.
