Thank you for reviewing the patch.

I have defined it as an array because I plan to reuse this property for
other TI devices like J721e which supports up to two QSGMII main ports.
J7200 on the other hand can have at most one QSGMII main port, which is
why I have restricted the array size to one element as of this series.
In the upcoming patches that I will be posting for J721e, I will be
changing the maxItems to 2 for J721e's compatible while it will continue
to remain 1 for J7200's compatible. This is the reason for defining the
property as an array.

Regards,
Siddharth.
