phy: ti: ti-pipe3: allow configuring ACSPCIe TX/RX mode

This commit adds a device tree setting to configure the ACSPCIe TX/RX mode
for the OMAP PCIe PHY subsystem. It uses a syscon regmap to apply the
configuration during probe.

[Severity: High]
Does this code inadvertently break probe deferral?

If the syscon provider is not yet ready, syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle_args()
will return -EPROBE_DEFER. Masking this actual error code into -EINVAL could
prevent the driver from probing later.

[Severity: High]
Is it intentional that the error returned from ti_pipe3_acspcie_tx_rx_mode()
is ignored?

The value of ret is captured but immediately overwritten by
ti_pipe3_get_pll_base(). This causes the probe to proceed even if the syscon
lookup fails or requires deferral.
