As Grant says, you're thinking about what drivers will do with things
rather than what the actual hardware setup is, which is what the
device tree should describe.

I see two sensible options for this situation:
       - Move the MDIO node to outside the gianfar MAC node.  I think
this is already done on some boards with gianfar?

mpc5200 FEC is another example of this.

       - Explicitly add the gianfar device to the list of things to
scan for of_platform subdevices.

Ack.  I 100% agree.
