I'd assume only a subset of modes are supported by this h/w. If so, list
them.

Reference? Meaning a phandle? Or this is a node because that's what
'type: object' says.

The reference applies to nodes, but 'pcs-handle' is a property. It needs
to be at the top-level:

allOf:
- $ref: /schemas/net/ethernet-controller.yaml#
