For a new, common binding, you've got to do better than this. Bindings
need to stand on their own. I need a h/w block diagram or something
because I know little about "ethernet backplane".

items:

  ...

Is 0-2^32 valid data? If not, add some constraints.

DT is not a dumping ground for magic register values.

eq-init vs. eq-params is pretty vague as to what they are.

I fail to see how these properties are related to $subject. Should be
a separate patch.

Do you have a datasheet for this device as bindings describe devices?
I assume not because serdes is a protocol, not a device. AFAIK,
there's no standard programming interface for 'serdes' as that is
about the only time we have any sort of genericish compatible strings.
The compatible string at a minimum should tell me what the programming
model for the registers are.

The default address and sizes are 1 cell. So you have addr 0 with size
0x1ea0000 and then addr 0 with size 0x2000.

Not valid. You have 1 entry (with a addr and size) for reg, but 2
entries for reg-names.

40G is made up of 4 10G lanes, right? Do all 40G serdes phys have
separate register regions for each lane? You can't assume lanes and DT
nodes are 1-1.

As lanes have to be child nodes, these 2 schemas should be 1. Though I
don't think lane nodes will survive.
