Usually the MDI pair order reversal configuration is defined by
bootstrap pin MDI_CFG. Some designs, however, require overriding the MDI
pair order and force either normal or reverse order.
Add mutually exclusive properties 'marvell,force-mdi-order-normal' and
'marvell,force-mdi-order-reverse' for that purpose.

Despite supporting Auto MDI-X, it looks like Aquantia only supports
swapping pair (1,2) with pair (3,6) like it used to be for MDI-X on
100MBit/s networks.
When all 4 pairs are in use (for 1000MBit/s or faster) the link does not
come up with pair order is not configured correctly, either using
MDI_CFG pin or using the "PMA Receive Reserved Vendor Provisioning 1"
register.
Normally, the order of MDI pairs being either ABCD or DCBA is configured
by pulling the MDI_CFG pin.
However, some hardware designs require overriding the value configured
by that bootstrap pin. The PHY allows doing that by setting a bit in
"PMA Receive Reserved Vendor Provisioning 1" register which allows
ignoring the state of the MDI_CFG pin and another bit configuring
whether the order of MDI pairs should be normal (ABCD) or reverse
(DCBA). Pair polarity is not affected and remains identical in both
settings.
Introduce two mutually exclusive boolean properties which allow forcing
either normal or reverse order of the MDI pairs from DT.
If none of the two new properties is present, the behavior is unchanged
and MDI pair order configuration is untouched (ie. either the result of
MDI_CFG pin pull-up/pull-down, or pair order override already configured
by the bootloader before Linux is started).
Forcing normal pair order is required on the Adtran SDG-8733A Wi-Fi 7
residential gateway.

Is there an in-tree dts file for this? We like to see that options
which are added are actually used.

I planning to submit DTS for all the Adtran 8700 series once the
MediaTek MT7988 SoC Ethernet is fully supported. At this point I'm still
waiting for feedback on how to organize the PCS drivers for that SoC,

Ordinarily, when there are property related constraints in here, the
allOf is moved after the property definitions, since it is odd to talk
about rules for properties prior to defining them. If you resend, please
move these down. Otherwise,

Why 2 properties for 1 setting? Just do something like this:
marvell,mdi-cfg-order = <0|1>;
1 means reverse, 0 means normal (or vise-versa). Not present then means
use MDI_CFG setting. Then the binding naturally avoids nonsensical
combinations of properties without the schema having to enforce it.
Feel free to tweak the naming/values. I would make 0 and 1 align with
MDI_CFG states, but I don't know what those are.
