As commented in patch 1, the fact that you have to put the Ethernet PHY
address twice here is not really a good thing, because they cannot be
dissociated from eath other, I would rather have a standard Ethernet PHY
DT node represent the desired PHY address, and have your glue/SHIM
SUN8I_H3_EMAC driver scan the Device Tree to know what address to
program for the Ethernet PHY.
