Okay, would add the fsl,hsio- prefix later.

Sorry, miss one space between "use" and "cases".
i.MX8QM HSIO module can be controlled by DSC/software in these three
 different modes. So I add this property (fsl,hsio-cfg) here to specify the
 work mode of HSIO.

It's my bad. Didn't describe the HW clearly above.
The fsl,hsio-cfg is used to specify the work mode of HSIO subsystem, not only
 the PHY mode. Since the PHYs are contained in the HSIO subsystem, can't be
used by PCIe or SATA controller freely. The usage of these PHYs are limited
 by the HSIO work modes. BTW, up to now, I still don't have a good idea to
 describe the HSIO by phy-modes property although I prefer this way in my mind.

Sorry about the missing prefix. The prefix would be added later.
And the optional would be removed. Thanks.

I see. You're right the status of PCIe or SATA controller is not a property
 of the PHY. Some bits contained in the ctrl-csr region, are used to kick
off resets through the internal glue logic. So, this property is added
 for phy driver.

"fsl,hsio-" prefix would be added later.

Sorry, would be changed and aligned later.

I understand that phy should have the apb_pclk whatever it is used in
 which mode. Would keep aligned in the clock definitions later. Thanks.
