32 bits, this has an unit. Why is this configurable through Device Tree
and if this is describing the HW, as it should, why is not that inferred
from the compatible string?

Interesting, why do you need to declare this as opposed to also
determining this entirely from the compatible string of the Ethernet MAC?

There is no phy-handle property, yet there clearly seems to be one
attached, and I think Andrew now also responded to that in the driver
patch, this needs fixing.

I see. I'll rewrite the binding example using mdio node.

I've thought the common compatible string was reasonable for all UniPhier
SoCs. However, since there are some different features among SoCs
like "desc-bits" etc. and such feature would increase from now on,
it's convenient to add compatible strings for each SoCs.

This property was added after determining to use common compatible string.
I'll re-consider to use compatible strings for each SoCs.

Surely phy-handle is missing in this. I'll fix it with mdio node.
