I think that what you want to express is that microchip,rmii-clk-internal
is only defined for microchip,ksz8863 and microchip,ksz8873.
Can't you describe that as "if: properties: compatible: (...) then:
properties: microchip,rmii-clk-internal"?

Also, this is a port interface property, so I would like to see it in
the xMII port and not global to the switch. The KSZ8873/KSZ8863 is
somewhat special in that it only contains a single xMII port, but that
doesn't mean that RMII settings are switch-wide.
