This phy supports USB3.1 SSP+(10Gbps) protocol and is backwards
compatible to the USB3.0 SS(5Gbps). It requires two clocks, named
"phy" and "ref". The required supplies for USB3.1 are named as
vdd075_usb30(0.75v), vdd18_usb30(1.8v).

Please do not describe the schema, but hardware. This sentence does
not help me in my question further.

This is a combo phy having Synopsys usb20 and usb30 phys (these 2
phys are

totally different).

quoted

One PHY only supports usb2.0 and data rates whereas another one does
usb3.1 ssp+ and usb3.1 ssp

This patch only explains about usb30 (since these are two different
phys) phy

and omitted inclusion of usb20 reference (added separate patch for
this patch no 3).

Hope this is clear.

No. That sentence still explains what schema is doing.

Ok, let me simplify the commit message further something like below.
Anyways, the coverletter contains more details about it.

"dt-bindings: phy: samsung,usb3-drd-phy: add ExynosAutov920 combo
ssphy

  Add schema for combo ssphy found on this SoC.
"

Please confirm if this looks fine?
If so, will reflect the similar commit messages in patch 1 and 3.

Please read my first comment again. I do not see how does this satisfy
hardware explanation.

Just went through the conversation above, 
until what extent hardware description need to be explain in the commit?
Do we have any guideline for the same?
Could you please help with an example from previous any commit or some other patches? 
I understand that mentioning, “two clocks, two supplies etc" are part of schema, 
one may or may not capture that in the commit. 
However mentioning, “this hardware (SoC) contain a combo PHY which supports usb3.1 and usb3.0" is not ok? 

Best regards,
Krzysztof
