I think with the ti-sysc managing the interconnect target module as the
parent of this, you should be able add all the modules as direct children
of ti-sysc with minor fixups. This would simplify things, and makes it
easier to update the driver later on when the child modules get
changed/updated/moved around.

The child modules just need to call PM runtime to have access to their
registers, and whatever cpsw control module part could be a separate
driver providing Linux standard services for example for clock gating :)

And in this case, mdio above would just move up one level.

This goes back to my earlier comments saying the cpsw is really just
a private interconnect with a collection of various mostly independent
modules. Sounds like you're heading that way already though at the
driver level :)
