I've followed the same format as for all latest compatibility strings in
Kernel. Also I've checked ePAPR and dash is used for all examples there.

"ti,davinci_mdio" was added 2 years ago, so possibly no strict
convention or review were done then. Now, I can't change
"ti,davinci_mdio" -> "ti,davinci-mdio" to be consistent with Kernel due
to compatibility issues.

May be DT Gurus can say more?
