tx-internal-delays and rx-internal-delays are a common setting for RGMII
capable devices.

These properties are used when the phy-mode or phy-controller is set to
rgmii-id, rgmii-rxid or rgmii-txid.  These modes indicate to the
controller that the PHY will add the internal delay for the connection.

Isn't this a property of the phy (this is the controller schema)? Looks
like we have similar properties already and they go in phy nodes. Would
be good to have a standard property, but let's be clear where it goes.

We need to add '-ps' as a standard unit suffix (in dt-schema) and then a
type is not needed here.
This is a PHY specific property.

I will move them.

Dumb question but you can just point me to the manual about how and
where to add the '-ps' to the dt-schema
Here[1], but looks like I already added it. I'd checked the old kernel
version (property-units.txt) which didn't have it.
