What are the functional differences between the blocks in these devices that mean they have different compatible strings? > +- reg: offset and length of the register set for the device; if the device has > + TSU registers, you need to specify two register sets here. This doesn't explicitly state ordering, and doesn't describe what the first register set is (control registers?). If possible, it would be nice to refer to the set of registers by the name given in documentation; is there any available? I think we should have something like the below to ensure it's explicit. In general we need more consistency in the the way bindings describe reg properties. - reg: offset and length of: [1] the control registers of the device (required) [2] the TSU registers for the device (optional) > +- interrupt-parent: the phandle for the interrupt controller that services > + interrupts for this device.

That looks suspicious. Bindings should *not* refer to Linux internals. Instead, we should document the phy-handle and phy-mode properties and how they are meant to be used in a generic binding document (I couldn't see a generic document doing this so far...). > +- phy-handle: phandle of the PHY device. > + > +Optional properties: > +- local-mac-address: 6 bytes, MAC address. > +- renesas,no-ether-link: specify when a board does not provide a proper LINK > + signal. > +- renesas,ether-link-active-low: specify when the LINK signal is active-low. What types are these?

You didn't describe the format of the phy node, yet you are reading values from it from a logically separate driver.
