net: axienet: document device tree mdio child node
The mdio child node for the MDIO bus is generally required when using this driver but was not documented other than being shown in the example. Document it as an optional (but usually required) parameter. Signed-off-by: Robert Hancock <hancock@sedsystems.ca> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
