Sure, Will change it to devm_of_mdiobus_register.

Again some compatibility with out-of-tree DT bindings?quoted
Device strapping method cannot be used since the phy-mode is expected to be present in the DT. So above assignment have to be removed along with lan937x_get_interface function.

+ + /* maximum delay is 4ns */ + if (val > 4000) + val = 4000;These bindings are new. Given that you also document their min and max values, why don't you just error out on out-of-range values instead of silently doing what you think is going to be fine?
Sure, i think the driver can also notify rx/tx internal delay applied message using dev_info.
