Multi-port phy's may have per-port power supplies. Let's change phy core to first attempt to look up the supply at the port level, and then, if not found, check parent device.Why not just have every port provide the power supply if it needs? I don't think checking for parent device should be present in the phy-core at all.
We need to do that if we want to keep compatibility with the current DTSes: before this patch the supply would be always looked up on device and not port level. Thanks, Dmitry
