This seems fair to me, so

However, if the PHY version can't be identified at runtime, I wonder whether 
it would make sense to add it to the PHY DT node. The driver could then pick 
the right configuration function accordingly. SoC-specific parameters (such as 
PLL parameters) would still be passed through platform glue code, but all the 
rest could be moved to the core driver.
