Well, I've seen the [1] before, this method may mask some issues. For 
example ,if I use
another type of phy ,I have to modify the DT, Is it very cumbersome?

Thank you ,The logic is wrong,trying to fix it.

yes,I need to get reset pulse width and post-reset stabilization times 
from reset-assert-us and  reset-deassert-us. right?
