Except the Endpoint MAC does not have MDIO?  Or does it have an MDIO bus,
and you have simply not listed it?
The endpoint MAC does not connect to an external PHY and therefore does not expose an MDIO bus.
It is an internal endpoint, so no MDIO node is required.
It does not really matter if it is required. Does it physically exist?
Can MDC and MDIO be routed to pins? Could i hang an external switch
off it?

DT describes hardware. If the hardware exists, describe it.
