[PATCH] docs: networking: phy: Improve phrasing

From: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.neuschaefer@gmx.net>

It's not about times (multiple occurences of an event) but about the
duration of a time interval.

 electrical signal interface using a synchronous 125Mhz clock signal and several
 data lines. Due to this design decision, a 1.5ns to 2ns delay must be added
 between the clock line (RXC or TXC) and the data lines to let the PHY (clock
-sink) have enough setup and hold times to sample the data lines correctly. The

 PHY library offers different types of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII* values to let
 the PHY driver and optionally the MAC driver, implement the required delay. The
 values of phy_interface_t must be understood from the perspective of the PHY
