Is the problem that the documentation is confusing? Or that developers
don't actually read the documentation, nor the mailing list?

There is a point of diminishing returns with working on Documentation.

There might be more value in working on checkpatch, add a warning
about any patch adding phy-mode == 'rmgii' without a comment on the
line.
