Hello Stephen,

The current state of Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/qcom-qmp-phy.txt
is indeed:

		For "qcom,msm8998-qmp-usb3-phy" must contain
			"phy", "common".
		For "qcom,msm8998-qmp-ufs-phy": must contain:
			"ufsphy".
		For "qcom,msm8998-qmp-pcie-phy" must contain:
			"phy", "common".
		For "qcom,sdm845-qmp-usb3-phy" must contain:
			"phy", "common".


It is not clear to me what I could/should have done differently to avoid
the conflict?

Regards.
