So how is this different to reg? Why cannot it be derived from reg?
Please give us all the details of what this actually does. Or point us
to a chapter in the datasheet.

If there is an external PHY, why have a fixed link?

This is not tested, either. You must test your code BEFORE you send it, not after. Best regards, Krzysztof

My bot found errors running 'make dt_binding_check' on your patch:

See https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/devicetree-bindings/patch/20250816052323.360788-2-mmyangfl@gmail.com
The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.
If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:
pip3 install dtschema --upgrade
Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
