This is too generic. Please add a more specific compatible for this
particular mux. You can keep "mdio-mux", since that is what the MDIO
subsystem will look for.

I will add allwinner,sun8i-h3-mdio-mux

+- phy-is-integrated

So the last thing you said is that the mux is not the problem
here. Something else is locking up. Did you discover what?

I really would like phy-is-integrated to go away.

I have found the problem: by enabling ephy clk/reset the timeout does not occur anymore.
So we could remove phy-is-integrated by:
Moving internal phy clk/reset handling in mdio_mux_syscon_switch_fn()
But this means:
- getting internalphy node always by manually get internal_mdio/internal_phy (and not by the given phyhandle)
- doing some unnecessary tasks (enable/scan/disable) when external_phy is needed
