But removing it is also O.K. >=20 It's a property that is already defined in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/phy.txt I don't think it's actually useful to redefine it there (on the same principle that we don't redefine/re-explain the reg property). What do we do? Do I put it in optional properties and refer to the aforementioned doc or do I just remove it as it's done in this patch?
