In april 2007, ucc_geth was converted to phylib with :
commit 728de4c927a3 ("ucc_geth: migrate ucc_geth to phylib").
In that commit, the device-tree property "interface", that could be used to
retrieve the PHY interface mode was deprecated.
DTS files that still used that property were converted along the way, in
the following commit, also dating from april 2007 :
commit 0fd8c47cccb1 ("[POWERPC] Replace undocumented interface properties in dts files")
17 years later, there's no users of that property left and I hope it's
safe to say we can remove support from that in the ucc_geth driver,
making the probe() function a bit simpler.17 years seems reasonable.
