The LED_1 pin can be strapped to be an input to the chip for signal loss
detection. This is an optional feature of the PHY.
This property defines the polarity for the 822 LED_1/GPIO input pin.
The LOS is not required to be connected to the PHY. If the preferred
method is to use the SFP framework and Processor GPIOs then I can remove
this from the patch set.
And if a user would like to use the feature then they can add it.
