When I do drop it, then
make dt_binding_check DT_SCHEMA_FILES=nxp,imx28-mtip-switch.yaml

shows:

nxp,imx28-mtip-switch.example.dtb: switch@800f0000: ethernet-ports:
'oneOf' conditional failed, one must be fixed:

'ports' is a required property 
'ethernet-ports' is a required property
        from schema $id:
        http://devicetree.org/schemas/net/nxp,imx28-mtip-switch.yaml#

We do have ethernet-ports:
and we do "include" ($ref)
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.14.6/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet-switch.yaml#L77

which is what we exactly need.

When removed we do have:
nxp,imx28-mtip-switch.example.dtb: switch@800f0000: Unevaluated
properties are not allowed ('ethernet-ports' was unexpected)

or 

nxp,imx28-mtip-switch.yaml: ethernet-ports: Missing
additionalProperties/unevaluatedProperties constraint

Depending if I do remove 'patternProperties' above.

To sum up - with the current code, the DT schema checks pass. It also
looks like the $ref for ethernet-switch is used in an optimal way.

I would opt for keeping the code as is for v12.

Ok, I will remove it for v12.
