Actually, the "fsl,enetc-mdio" compatible is not used in the driver, I'm not
sure whether we should still keep it in the DTS, maybe we can remove it
from DTS first, or rename the compatible string, IMO, "fsl,enetc-mdio" is
not quiet right, this MDIO controller not only provide MDIO bus to ENETC,
but also to NETC switch.
