The 6060 is a separate driver. Its not part of mv88e6xxx. So it should
have a binding document of its own.

This interrupt controller is for the embedded PHYs. Its is hard wired
active high.

This is used to access external PHYs attached to the ports, not the
ports themselves.

The driver only looks at the compatible. It does not care what the
node is called. So you are going to need to change the driver if you
want this in the schema.
