I initially tried that, but it makes things a lot worse:

This is because while the underlying IP is derived from the Synopsis
one, the Tegra MGBE is slightly modified and has different clock inputs,
interrupts, etc.

Or, well, I guess I don't actually know (does anyoen?) if the licensed
IP is properly represented by snps,dwmac.yaml, or if it's just a set of
values that happen to apply to some set of derived IPs.

Anyway, the easiest would probably be to just duplicate the
snps,axi-config property because it's only a phandle. stmmac-axi-config
not having a vendor prefix doesn't throw an error, so we could probably
keep it as-is.

I suppose another alternative would be to add special cases into
snps,dwmac.yaml, but I don't know if that's a great idea, it's just
going to make that very messy if everyone starts doing that.

Which do you prefer? Or is there another option that you think would be
better here?

Thanks,
Thierry
