The following device tree specifies a shared mdio.
The ffec driver uses miibus.
When there is a shared mdio, one of the device instances will not be able to 
properly configure the PHY, as it needs to use the other devices resource to 
read/write the PHY.

&fec1 {
                pinctrl-names = "default";
                pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_fec1>;
                phy-mode = "rgmii-id";
                phy-handle = <&ethphy0>;
                fsl,magic-packet;
                status = "okay";

                mdio {
                                #address-cells = <1>;
                                #size-cells = <0>;

                                ethphy0: ethernet-phy@0 {
                                                compatible = 
"ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22";
                                                reg = <0>;
                                };

                                ethphy1: ethernet-phy@1 {
                                                compatible = 
"ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22";
                                                reg = <1>;
                                };
                };
};

&fec2 {
                pinctrl-names = "default";
                pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_fec2>;
                phy-mode = "rgmii-txid";
                phy-handle = <&ethphy1>;
                phy-supply = <&reg_fec2_supply>;
                nvmem-cells = <&fec_mac1>;
                nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address";
                rx-internal-delay-ps = <2000>;
                fsl,magic-packet;
                status = "okay";
};

Does FreeBSD have any plans for supporting hardware that specifies a shared 
mdio in the dtb?
Just knowing the general approach being considered would be helpful.
