I believe if you're banned, checking the eShop on any firmware gives you the ban error code. Otherwise if your firmware is too low, it tells you to update.

Additional Comments
Well i will explain my history again, the first time i hacked my switch i didn't know that i can perform a nand backup with low space on my sd card, it was 16GB, but nearly the 6.2.0 update for switch was coming, i didn't recist to the idea of being Banned so, i formated the system from settings, system recovery and settings again, but before this i updated my switch for the exFat support when i already installed an nsp but delete wifi settings and that faster no bug code was done at that time. I used rajnx then reinx and last atmosphere, got errors on Rajnx and atmosphere, i don't know if at that time my rajnx cfw was using creport but on atmosphere yes, i used reinx to know how it works but leave it. From this, i thought i was banned 3 days after the formats and that, but was problems with my internet and my switch fixed it and wasn't banned, updated from 6.1.0 to 6.2.0 play online on free games normally, downloaded them from eshop and that, a week later i wanted to hack again but no support for 6.2 was made, so with my 16GB this time knowing i can backup my nand, i did it on my 3 time formated nand, and downgrade to 6.1.0, when finally atmosphere was out for 6.2 this time with a 128GB sd card i restored the backup that i did and hack, to end this quick, at the beginning of this year i got some money to bought a license for SXOS, so i restored again my Nand, look that i wasn't banned, and play some games, till now i'm not banned, 3 days ago i finally bought my License, created an emuNand, played .xci, installed nsp, all of them on Emunand and when i restart to ofw everything is fine, still no ban.
What i think too for this case is that i'm flagged for the next 3 months or maybe a year for a ban, nintendo is waiting for a good amount of hackers to just simple do a ban wave and RIP, why i said it? because my friend is doing cfw with nsp and updating them on eshop and updating his console on the legal way and he has been doing this since 3 months, nothing has happend to him too.
Now you can laught at me because "haha he bought sxos because he think he won't be banned and that", but i don't care, if that is going to happend then is ok, but i like the idea of the impleted cheats and external usb support, they might be coming to free cfw too, so good for it, but i can enjoy them now.
You could update to latest firmware with ChoiDujourNX and don’t burn fuses. Then you could always go back to 4.1.0. But if you go online with your console you will be probably banned.
There is no reason to use LayeredFS for backup loading anymore since we have native backup launching support via both .NSP and .XCI files. The entire reason LayeredFS has a bad reputation is because it led to the first banwave due to everyone using it to play backups.
