Please reformat like this:

- compatible: can be one of:
	"hisilicon,hns-mdio"
	"hisilicon,mdio"
  For hip04 board, must be "hisilicon,mdio".
  Otherwise, must be "hisilicon,hns-mdio".

should we recommend the use of "hisilicon,hns-mdio" unconditionally
and only list "hisilicon,mdio" for backwards compatibility?
