I've no idea is this is a good or bad idea, but could you put all the
above code in the phy driver? It does seem to be mostly phy
related. Then teach the core ahci code about optional phy nodes in DT.
You can then probably do without a ahci berlin driver.
The code is PHY related, but the setup done is SATA specific. I think it
makes sense to keep it here. From what I saw lots of PHY drivers only
power up / down the PHYs.

Lots of port setups are done in the SATA framework, so it would separate
related code into two subsystems.
