Re: [PATCH net-next v19 03/10] dt-bindings: mfd: Document support for Airoha AN8855 Switch SoC

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 3 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The `reset-gpios` property is defined as `true` without a `maxItems` constraint.
- [Low] The `mdio` child node property is missing the `type: object` declaration.
- [Low] The example includes a DT binding header for GPIO flags but uses a magic number instead of the appropriate macro.

dt-bindings: mfd: Document support for Airoha AN8855 Switch SoC

This commit adds device tree bindings documentation for the Airoha AN8855
Switch SoC. It defines the constraints for peripherals including an Ethernet
switch, NVMEM provider, and Ethernet PHYs.

[Severity: Low]
Should this define a maxItems constraint? 

Since it doesn't reference a common schema that enforces a limit (like
panel-common.yaml), device trees defining multiple GPIOs might silently pass
validation, even if the hardware only supports a single reset line.

[Severity: Low]
Is type: object missing here?

The standard mdio.yaml does not enforce type: object at its root. If a
malformed device tree defines mdio as a scalar value, object-related
validation rules might be bypassed. The sibling efuse and ethernet-switch
declarations correctly specify it for their respective nodes.

[Severity: Low]
Since the dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h header is included at the top of the
example, would it be better to use GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH instead of the raw
integer 0 for the flags parameter?
