doc: bindings: Add description for MDIO MUX dts nodes

Adds a short bindings document describing the expected structure of a MDIO
MUX dts node.  This is based on Linux binding and the example is in fact
copied from there.

+The expected structure of an MDIO MUX device tree node is described here.  This
+is heavily based on current Linux specification.
+One notable difference to Linux is that mdio-parent-bus is currently required
+by U-Boot, not optional as is in Linux.  Current U-Boot MDIO MUX udevice class
+implementation does not have specific support for MDIOs with an integrated MUX,
+the property should be made optional if such support is added.
+
+The MDIO buses downstream of the MUX should be described in the device tree as
+child nodes as indicated below.
+
+Required properties:
+mdio-parent-bus = a phandle to the MDIO bus used to perform actual I/O.  This is
+                  typically a real MDIO device, unless there are cascaded MUXes.
+#address-cells = <1>, each MDIO group is identified by one 32b value.
+#size-cells = <0>
+
+Other properties:
+The properties described here are sufficient for MDIO MUX DM class code, but
+MUX drivers may define additional properties, either required or optional.
+
+Required properties in child nodes:
+reg = value to be configured on the MUX to select the respective downstream
+      MDIO.
+
+Child nodes should normally contain PHY nodes, referenced by phandle from
+ethernet nodes of the eth interfaces using these PHYs.
+
+Example structure, extracted from Linux bindings document:
