Currently (in the vendor tree) one of the phys lives in drivers/usb/phy and the other in drivers/phy.
I believe that is because one is only a usb phy and the other is a multi function phy which can drive
PCI-E or USB3.

So to make that work, when dwc3/core.c gets the PHYS in dwc3_core_get_phy() we need to use the different
bindings.

I think we are the only platform using "one of each", but luckily dwc3_core_get_phy()
has been written generically enough that it "just works" :-).

regards,

Peter.
