This seems fair to me, so

However, if the PHY version can't be identified at runtime, I wonder whether
it would make sense to add it to the PHY DT node. The driver could then pick
the right configuration function accordingly. SoC-specific parameters (such as
PLL parameters) would still be passed through platform glue code, but all the
rest could be moved to the core driver.
