Most of the phy providers use "select" to enable GENERIC_PHY. Since select
is only recommended when the config is not visible, GENERIC_PHY is changed
an invisible option. To maintain consistency, all phy providers are changed
to "select" GENERIC_PHY and all non-phy drivers use "depends on" when the
phy framework is explicity required. USB_MUSB_OMAP2PLUS has a cyclic
dependency, so it is left as "select".

NAK.

Felipe, I dont understand your concern, could you please explain it more
detail? The logic behind the changes is that in cases where there was an
explicit dependency, I changed it to "depends on" and in other cases I
changed it to "selects". Thanks

Since GENERIC_PHY is visible from Kconfig, it would be much nicer to
avoid select altogether.

Felipe, after discussion with the maintainers, I have made GENERIC_PHY an invisible option as part of this change. Thanks
