phy: realtek: usb2: introduce phy_reg_desc struct to the driver
In RTL9607C SoC, there are a few differences in usb2 phy compared
to existing RTD SoCs, like vstatus register is at certain offset
from the base, busy bit and new_reg_req bit are at different bits
of the register.
To avoid duplicating these variables across phy cfg and driver data,
create a per-SoC struct that would hold them and with that add the
default rtd_phy_reg_desc to which all RTD SoCs driver data will
point towards.

[Severity: High]
Can this dereference an out-of-bounds array element?
In rtk_phy_toggle(), the bounds check uses > instead of >=:
if (index > rtk_phy->num_phy) {
This incorrectly allows index to equal the array size num_phy. When
do_rtk_phy_toggle() uses this out-of-bounds index to access the dynamically
allocated phy_parameter array, an invalid phy_reg element is passed to
rtk_phy_read().
Dereferencing the explicitly added desc pointer from this invalid phy_reg
element will immediately cause a NULL pointer dereference or memory corruption.

[Severity: High]
Does this code handle of_iomap() failures correctly?
of_iomap() can return NULL. The driver fails to check this return value and
proceeds, which can cause a NULL pointer dereference later when
reg_wrap_vstatus is offset and dereferenced in rtk_phy_write().
Additionally, this maps the exact same indices (0 and 1) redundantly in a
loop up to num_phy times, which may leak I/O memory if mapped multiple times.
[Severity: High]
Does this pointer arithmetic result in an unaligned pointer?
Adding index to the void __iomem * returned by of_iomap(np, 1) increments the
address by exactly index bytes (e.g. 1 byte for the second PHY in a dual-port
configuration). This creates an unaligned I/O pointer.
Executing a 32-bit I/O access on this unaligned pointer in rtk_phy_write()
can cause a hardware Alignment Fault.

[Severity: High]
Does this missing cleanup cause an I/O memory leak?
The teardown function completes without calling iounmap() for the regions
mapped by of_iomap() in parse_phy_data(), resulting in a permanent I/O memory
leak on driver removal.
