Filename based on compatible, so mxl,gsw145-mdio.yaml. But see below.

You do not have multiple choices, so no need for oneOf

Why "mdio" suffix?

No need for allOf

That's not an URL. Open other schemas using ethernet-phy and check how
they are doing.

You miss:

    unevaluatedProperties: false

This cannot be true. Again - open existing bindings and do like they are
doing, not differently.

You wanted here unevaluatedProperties: false.

Hmmm... switch with MDIO is part of MDIO?

reg is a second property
