Hello

The current way to find if the phy is internal is to compare DT phy-mode
and emac_variant/internal_phy.
But it will negate a possible future SoC where an external PHY use the
same phy mode than the internal one.

This patchs series adds a new way to find if the PHY is internal, via its
compatible.
You've already joined in on the discussion for the patch "net: stmmac:
dwmac-rk: Add internal phy support". It is pretty much the same issue.
Please wait for it to come to a proper conclusion. At least then we can
agree on something so different platforms with the same problem don't
have diverging solutions.
Yes, this is important.
