The node would still be named "mdio". You are confusing the node name
with the label. But you don't really need the mdio node for the H3.
You could say here that it is not needed for the H3. See below.

Drop the comma. It's already a list.

Required properties for the mdio-mux node:
  - compatible: "allwinner,sun8i-h3-mdio-switch"

> +  - mdio-parent-bus: The parent bus is "mdio_parent"

This is optional in the mdio-mux binding. Since you have the mdio-mux under
the EMAC node, it should be obvious that it is connected to the EMAC. The
parent phandle is more useful for muxes that are separate from the controller,
such as an external GPIO-controlled mux. So you could just drop it.

The following compatibles require a PHY node representing the integrated
PHY, under the integrated MDIO bus node if an mdio-mux node is used:

Drop the mdio node as mentioned above. And also have spaces between
blocks to be consistent in styling. It's also easier to read.

You don't need this when using the external PHY.
