Some BCM63268 bootloaders do not enable the internal PHYs by default.
This patch series adds functionality for the switch driver to
configure the gigabit ethernet PHY.

So the register address you are manipulating logically belongs in the GPIO
block (GPIO_GPHY_CTRL) which has become quite a bit of a sundry here. I
don't have a strong objection about the approach picked up here but we will
need a Device Tree binding update describing the second (and optional)
register range.
Despite this being internal, is this actually a GPIO? Should it be
modelled as a GPIO line connected to a reset input on the PHY? It
would then nicely fit in the existing phylib handling of a PHY with a
GPIO reset line?
