Sorry for the late reply, but I'm not really happy with the fact that
the PLL is now unconditionally enabled, even though it is only needed
when there is no external reference clock source.
I fear that this will be hard to correct later on as the DT abstraction
is wrong, as IMX8MP_CLK_HSIO_ROOT is NOT the reference clock for the
PHY, but the PLL generated clock, which isn't properly exposed with
this series.

I'm not happy to see this going in in the current state and if not too
late would like to ask Shawn to remove it from the tree again.

Regards,
Lucas
