I would add a default: 0

Agreed.
I will add it in next version.

and then these are not required, but optional.

Configure the tx/rx delay in the scu register.
At least, the scu handle must be required.

Sorry, i was unclear. By says 'and then', i was trying to chain it to
the previous comment, that the delays should default to 0. With
defaults set, rx-internal-delay-ps and tx-internal-delay-ps become
optional. I agree scu is required.

Here I have one question.
In v3 patches series, if the ftgmac driver cannot find one of 
tx-internal-delay-ps and rx-internal-delay-ps, it will return error in probe 
stage.
If here is optional, does it means that just add warning and not return error when
lack one of them and use the default to configure? Or not configure tx/rx delay just
return success in probe stage?

Once you add the default statement, it is clear what delay should be
added if they property is not listed, 0. No warning is needed.

What you should find in the end is that most boards just set the new
compatible and 'rgmii-id', and need nothing else. Only badly designed
boards tend to need tx-internal-delay-ps and rx-internal-delay-ps.
