To match only on user ports, this must also exclude DSA ports ("required: [ link ]").

No. The only thing permitted by the slave_mii_bus is to do something meaningful
when phylink bindings ("phy-handle", "fixed-link" or "managed") are absent. But
the presence of slave_mii_bus does not imply that user ports have a required
phy-handle. They might be SerDes ports or xMII ports. So they might use "managed"
or "fixed-link". The only thing that you can enforce is that, if the slave_mii_bus
has an OF presence, then user ports must have phylink bindings.
