I think with the ti-sysc managing the interconnect target module as the
parent of this, you should be able add all the modules as direct children
of ti-sysc with minor fixups. This would simplify things, and makes it
easier to update the driver later on when the child modules get
changed/updated/moved around.

The child modules just need to call PM runtime to have access to their
registers, and whatever cpsw control module part could be a separate
driver providing Linux standard services for example for clock gating :)

+        davinci_mdio_sw: mdio@1000 {
+                compatible = "ti,cpsw-mdio","ti,davinci_mdio";
+                reg = <0x1000 0x100>;
+                clocks = <&gmac_clkctrl DRA7_GMAC_GMAC_CLKCTRL 0>;
+                clock-names = "fck";
+                #address-cells = <1>;
+                #size-cells = <0>;
+                bus_freq = <1000000>;
+
+                ethphy0_sw: ethernet-phy@0 {
+                        reg = <0>;
+                };
+
+                ethphy1_sw: ethernet-phy@1 {
+                        reg = <41>;
+                };
+        };

And in this case, mdio above would just move up one level.

This goes back to my earlier comments saying the cpsw is really just
a private interconnect with a collection of various mostly independent
modules. Sounds like you're heading that way already though at the
driver level :)

No, sorry I do not agree. The MDIO is inseparable part of CPSW and it's enabled when CPSW is enabled
(on interconnect level), more over I want to get rid of platform device in MDIO for most of the cases
as it only introduces boot/probing complexity.

The same is valid for CPTS.
