Ok.

Do you mean this:
   Currently defined compatibles:
   fsl,pq1-fec-mdio (reg is same as first resource of FEC device)
-> fsl,cpm2-mdio-bitbang (reg is port C registers)

   Properties for fsl,cpm2-mdio-bitbang:
-> fsl,mdio-pin : pin of port C controlling mdio data
-> fsl,mdc-pin : pin of port C controlling mdio clock

Right. But i thought it would be related to the example,
and than the reader gets the short comment about I/O ports.

Or the other variant would be:
--------------------
   iv) MDIO

   Currently defined compatibles:
   fsl,pq1-fec-mdio (reg is same as first resource of FEC device)
   fsl,cpm2-mdio-bitbang (reg is the I/O port register block(s))

   Properties for fsl,cpm2-mdio-bitbang:
   The first reg resource is the I/O port register block on which MDIO
   resides.  The second reg resource is the I/O port register block on
   which MDC resides.  If there is only one reg resource, it is used for
   both MDIO and MDC.
   fsl,mdio-pin : pin of chosen port for controlling mdio data
   fsl,mdc-pin : pin of chosen port for controlling mdio clock

   Example:
	mdio at 10d40 {
	device_type = "mdio";
	compatible = "fsl,mpc8272ads-mdio-bitbang",
        	     "fsl,mpc8272-mdio-bitbang",
       		     "fsl,cpm2-mdio-bitbang";
	reg = <10d40 14>;
	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;
	fsl,mdio-pin = <12>;
	fsl,mdc-pin = <13>;
	};
-----------------

Sergej.
