IIUC you meant that having a node and property with the same name
isn't ok. Right? If so could you explain why not? especially seeing
the property is expected to be set with phandle reference to that
node. That seemed like a perfect solution to me. We wouldn't need to
introduce a new property/node name, but just deprecate the
corresponding name to be a property.

Hm, you suggest to remove the vendor prefix, right? If so what about
the rest of the changes introduced here in this patch? They concern
"snps,mtl-tx-config" and "snps,mtl-rx-config" properties (please note
these changes are a bit more complicated than once connected with
"snps,axi-config"). Should I remove the vendor-prefix from them too?
Anyway that seems a bit questionable, because all the "snps,*-config"
properties/nodes seems more vendor-specific than generic. Am I wrong
in that matter?

If you think they are generic, then the "{axi,mtl-rx,mtl-tx}-config"
nodes most likely should be described in the dedicated DT schema...
