This patch fixes some problems with the way the Ethernet PHYs are
represented in the device tree for the Holly board.  This means
changes to the dts itself, and to the code with instantiates the
tsi108 ethernet platform devices based on the device tree.

	- First, and most importantly, the PHYs are given with an
identical 'reg' property.  This reg currently encodes the accessible
register used to initiate mdio interaction with the PHYs, rather than
a meaningful address on the parent bus (mdio in this case), which is
incorrect.  Instead we give the address of these registers as 'reg' in
the mdio node itself, and encode the ID of each phy in their 'reg'
propertys.  The PHY's unit name addresses are updated to match.
	- Second, the PHYs give only "bcm54xx" as a compatible
property.  This is unfortunate, because there are many bcm54xx PHY
models, and they have differences which can matter.  We add a more
precise compatible string, giving the precise PHY model (bcm5461A in
this case).
Is the compatible really need here?  We are able to provide and bind  
drivers based on MII_PHYSID1/2.  I don't see what putting the  
compatible proper gets us.
I think it's needed until the TSI driver switches to phylib.  Right now,
it assumes that a Marvell phy is used, which is what is present on the
Taiga MPC7448HPC2 board.  The Holly board uses the Broadcom phy and we
added the compatible code for that.
I think Ben's suggested approach of using a special property in the
phy node to indicate that this workaround is necessary is better.
After all, the workaround isn't actually related to the type of PHY,
which is what compatible encodes, but to how it's wired up.  Revised
patch below addressing this and other matters.
Grah! Forgot quilt ref.  Now a copy that might actually work.
Waah!  Third time lucky?
