"this" means "combo phy". Combo phy is combination of 2 types of the phys. 
1. one supports only USB3.1 SSP+ and denoted as "samsung,exynosautov920-usb31drd-combo-ssphy" as in patch no 5 (combo SS phy)
2. another supports only USB2.0 HS and termed as "samsung,exynosautov920-usbdrd-combo-hsphy" as in this patch (combo HS phy)

> If this is the same phy, why are you adding another compatible?

As explained earlier (even in cover letter), there are 3 types of the phys in this SoC.
1. one is simmilar with exynos850 and termed as "samsung,exynosautov920-usbdrd-phy" as mentioned in patch no.1
2. two phys are in combo phys as explained above (patch no 3 [combo HS phy] and 5[combo SS phy])
			
NOTE: hs phy in combo phy in "NOT" same as phy (patch no. 1 which is similar with exynos850). 
			
These three phys (usbdrd-phy, combo-hsphy, combo-ssphy) are totally deferent "NOT" same, hence added 3 three compatible for three phys.
