nit: ethernet-phy@0 should not be part of the ethernet controller
but either part of a separate mdio-ctrl node or a separate node itself.

AFAIKS, Berlin SoCs have internal PHYs, i.e. no MII/MDIO-pins exposed
but only MLT-3 differential pairs. At least BG2CD also can connect its
ethernet IP to a PHY capable of HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC).

So for BG2CD this has to look something like:

eth0: ethernet@f7b90000 {
...
phy-handle = <&hec>;
};

cec: cec@f7f00baa {
compatible = "marvell,berlin-cec";
reg = <0xf7f00baa 0x1234>;

/* CEC unit contains HEC PHY */
hec: ethernet-phy {
bla;
};
}

For reference, this is what we have for MVEBU SoCs with multiple ports
per controller:

eth: ethernet-ctrl@72000 {
compatible = "marvell,orion-eth";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0x72000 0x4000>;
clocks = <&gate_clk 2>;
marvell,tx-checksum-limit = <1600>;
status = "disabled";

ethernet-port@0 {
compatible = "marvell,orion-eth-port";
reg = <0>;
interrupts = <29>;
/* overwrite MAC address in bootloader */
local-mac-address = [00 00 00 00 00 00];
phy-handle = <&ethphy>;
};
};

mdio: mdio-bus@72004 {
compatible = "marvell,orion-mdio";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0x72004 0x84>;
interrupts = <30>;
clocks = <&gate_clk 2>;
status = "disabled";
ethphy: ethernet-phy {
/* set phy address in board file */
};
};
