Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] dt-bindings: net: realtek,rtl82xx: add a property to set MDI polarity

MDI pair polarity is usually configured by the bootloader.  However, on
some designs the configuration is left untouched during boot and needs
to be set by the driver.

Add the property 'realtek,mdi-cfg-polarity' to configure the polarity of
each pair. Bit 0 to 3 configure the polarity or pairs A to D, if set to
1 the polarity is reversed for this pair.
