I don't have any objections to that, this is pretty much what I sent in 
my v1 patch <20230405112118.1256151-2-j.zink@...gutronix.de>, but 
Krzysztof requested to change the vendor specific properties to use 
property-units.

Would something along the lines of the st,trim-hs-current on 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/phy-stm32-usbphyc.yaml be 
acceptable (i.e. use an enum and annotate the meaning of the values in 
the description)?

I will, nevertheless, try to make the descriptions a bit more verbose in 
my v2 (wherever the datasheet gives me proper informations), as 
Krzysztof requested.

Best regards
Johannes
