Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Andrew.

With or without this patch, the switch's internal MDIO bus is used to set
up the PHYs.

This is how I define it, mind you no phandles.

switch@1f {
	...
	mdio {
		#address-cells = <0x01>;
		#size-cells = <0x00>;

		ethernet-phy@0 {
			reg = <0x00>;
		};
	};
};

Like you said, if the mdio node is not defined, the driver will assume 1:1
mapping. If not, it will need all the PHYs to be defined on the mdio node
along with on the ports node. Hence back to my original statement, we can
either force defining the PHYs on the mdio node which would break the ABI,
or forget about doing PHY muxing this way.

There are no MDIO operations needed on the PHYs for the PHY muxing anyway,
so I'd rather do this some other way.

Thanks for the help.
