Yeah. I had read your discussion yesterday before coming back to this 
clock discussion. It is a monster chip and looks like you have a hard 
time figuring out how it works and looking for a good code/DT model.

I should clarify here a bit. I found this discussion while looking for a 
way to port one open source firmware to my router based on previous IPQ 
generation. And since I am a bit familiar with this chip family, I chose 
to put my 2c to make implementation discussion more structured. Long 
story short, I have no idea about Linaro's plans :)

If I am allowed to speak, the chosen baby steps approach to focus on 
pure PHY seems to be the only sane method in that case. Considering 
Alex's promise, we can assume that the next release will support this PHY.
