Introduce ACPI mechanism to get PHYs registered on a MDIO bus and
provide them to be connected to MAC.
Describe properties "phy-handle" and "phy-mode".

+=========================
+MDIO bus and PHYs in ACPI
+=========================
+
+The PHYs on an mdiobus are probed and registered using
+fwnode_mdiobus_register_phy().
+Later, for connecting these PHYs to MAC, the PHYs registered on the
+mdiobus have to be referenced.
+
+phy-handle
+-----------
+For each MAC node, a property "phy-handle" is used to reference the
+PHY that is registered on an MDIO bus.
+
+phy-mode
+--------
+Property "phy-mode" defines the type of PHY interface.
+
+An example of this is shown below::
+
+DSDT entry for MACs where PHY nodes are referenced
+--------------------------------------------------
+ Scope(\_SB.MCE0.PR17) // 1G
+ {
+ Name (_DSD, Package () {
+ ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
+ Package () {
+ Package (2) {"phy-mode", "rgmii-id"},
+ Package (2) {"phy-handle", Package (){\_SB.MDI0.PHY1}}
+ }
+ })
+ }
+
+ Scope(\_SB.MCE0.PR18) // 1G
+ {
+ Name (_DSD, Package () {
+ ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
+ Package () {
+ Package (2) {"phy-mode", "rgmii-id"},
+ Package (2) {"phy-handle", Package (){\_SB.MDI0.PHY2}}
+ }
+ })
+ }
+
+DSDT entry for MDIO node
+------------------------
+a) Silicon Component
+--------------------
+ Scope(_SB)
+ {
+ Device(MDI0) {
+ Name(_HID, "NXP0006")
+ Name(_CCA, 1)
+ Name(_UID, 0)
+ Name(_CRS, ResourceTemplate() {
+ Memory32Fixed(ReadWrite, MDI0_BASE, MDI_LEN)
+ Interrupt(ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveHigh, Shared)
+ {
+ MDI0_IT
+ }
+ }) // end of _CRS for MDI0
+ } // end of MDI0
+ }
+
+b) Platform Component
+---------------------
+ Scope(\_SB.MDI0)
+ {
+ Device(PHY1) {
+ Name (_ADR, 0x1)
+ } // end of PHY1
+
+ Device(PHY2) {
+ Name (_ADR, 0x2)
+ } // end of PHY2
