phy-mode belongs in the phy node though. Not that you couldn't look in 
the phy node and see, but everyone likes all the properties they need 
nicely packaged up in their driver's node.

I'm trying to unsee what the driver is doing... Hard-coding the 
connector type and some instance indices. Uhhhh! I'm sure I'm to blame 
for rejecting those in DT.

I've suggested connector nodes in the past. More generally, whatever is 
attached at the other end (as it could be a bridge rather than a 
connector) knows what mode is needed. It's simple negotiation. Each end 
presents what they support. You take the union of the list(s) and get 
the mode. If there's more than one, then the kernel or user gets to 
choose.

Qualcomm is not the only one with this problem. Solve it for everyone...
