+Properties for an MDIO bus multiplexer available in Broadcom NSP SoC.
+
+This MDIO bus multiplexer defines buses that could access the internal
+phys as well as external to SoCs. When child bus is selected, one needs
+to select the below properties to generate desired MDIO transaction on
+appropriate bus.
+
+Required properties in addition to the generic multiplexer properties:
+
+MDIO multiplexer node:
+- compatible: brcm,mdio-mux-iproc.
+- reg: Should contain registers location and length.
+- reg-names: Should contain the resource reg names.
+	- bus-ctrl: mdio bus control register address space required to
+	  select the bus master. This property is not required for SoC's
+	  that doesn't provide master selection.
+	- mgmt-ctrl: mdio management control register address space
+
+Sub-nodes:
+   Each bus master should be represented as a sub-node.
+
+Sub-nodes required properties:
+- reg: Bus master number. Should be 0x10 to access the external mdio devices.
+- address-cells: should be 1
+- size-cells: should be 0
+
+Every non-ethernet PHY requires a compatible property so that it could be
+probed based on this compatible string.
+
+Additional information regarding generic multiplexer properties can be found
+at- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/mdio-mux.txt
+
+example:
+
+	mdio_mux: mdio-mux at 3f190 {
+		compatible = "brcm,mdio-mux-nsp";
+		reg = <0x3f190 0x4>,
+		      <0x32000 0x4>;
+		reg-names = "bus-ctrl", "mgmt-ctrl";
+		mdio-parent-bus = <&mdio>;
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+
+		mdio at 0 {
+			reg = <0x0>;
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+
+			usb3_phy: usb3-phy at 10 {
+				compatible = "brcm,nsp-usb3-phy";
+				reg = <0x10>;
+				usb3-ctrl-syscon = <&usb3_ctrl>;
+				#phy-cells = <0>;
+				status = "disabled";
+			};
+		};
+	};
