From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@quicinc.com>

For devm_phy_destroy(), its comment says it needs to invoke phy_destroy()
to destroy the phy, but it does not invoke the function actually since
devres_destroy() will not call devm_phy_consume() at all which will call
the function, and the missing phy_destroy() call will case that the phy
fails to be destroyed.

Fixed by using devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within the API.

Here too, split in at least two sentences.

And add a comment about there not being any in-tree users of the
interface.

And consider dropping it.
