You are missing a compatible string such as
"ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22", please take a look at
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/phy.txt for an example.

device_type is deprecated and should be removed.

This should probably look like:

                    #address-cells = <0>;
                    #size-cells = <0>;

                    eth0_port: port at 0 {
                         reg = <0>;
                    };

                    eth1_port: port at 1f {
                         reg = <31>;
                    };

This looks like something similar to mv643xx_eth, you should see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/marvell.txt for hints on how to
model the representation in a similar fashion.

I do not think this is the right way to expose that, port should be
specialized to e.g: hisilicon,port, or you should use a phandle to the
"ppebase" node which exposes differents ports as subnodes:

                    hisilicon,port-handle = <&eth0_port>;

> +               speed = <100>;

max-speed is the standard property for this

id here is a software concept, either you create properly numbered
aliases for these nodes, and use of_alias_get_id(), or you do not use
these identifiers at all.
