"brcm,bgmac-nsp" sounds a bit too general. As I understand, this is a family
of SoCs that might not all have the exact same implementation of this
ethernet device, as we can see from the long lookup table in bgmac_probe().

Please document the specific product numbers here that are publically
known already. Having the driver match just on "brcm,bgmac-nsp" as a fallback
is fine, so you can document that one as required for all users.
