doc/device-tree-bindings/net/mdio-mux.txt

The expected structure of an MDIO MUX device tree node is described here.  This
is heavily based on current Linux specification.
One notable difference to Linux is that mdio-parent-bus is currently required
by U-Boot, not optional as is in Linux.  Current U-Boot MDIO MUX udevice class
implementation does not have specific support for MDIOs with an integrated MUX,
the property should be made optional if such support is added.

The MDIO buses downstream of the MUX should be described in the device tree as
child nodes as indicated below.

Required properties:
mdio-parent-bus = a phandle to the MDIO bus used to perform actual I/O.  This is
                  typically a real MDIO device, unless there are cascaded MUXes.
#address-cells = <1>, each MDIO group is identified by one 32b value.
#size-cells = <0>

Other properties:
The properties described here are sufficient for MDIO MUX DM class code, but
MUX drivers may define additional properties, either required or optional.

Required properties in child nodes:
reg = value to be configured on the MUX to select the respective downstream
      MDIO.

Child nodes should normally contain PHY nodes, referenced by phandle from
ethernet nodes of the eth interfaces using these PHYs.
