Hi Rob,
	Thanks for your comments.

the common stmmac driver will parse interrupt-name "macirq",
so even only one interrupt is used in mediatek dwmac design,
the interrupt-names is still remained in device tree.

Got it. assigned-clocks/assigned-clocks-parents properties can handle
it.

the delay time in mediatek dwmac design is not so accurate, 
the current mt2712 and the following ICs will not use the same delay
design, but will use stages to indicate different delay time.
so, maybe "mediatek,tx-delay" represent the delay stage is a good
choice.
