I think the phy reference should use the standard phy binding, using
"phys" property to refer to a node that has a "#phy-cells" property.

It seems the code gets this right, but just the documentation is wrong.

No. Do not use "dma-mask" as a property, that is a pure Linux specific
concept. The DT way to express this is to use the 'dma-ranges' property
in the device's parent to describe any bus-related restrictions, and
for the driver to ask for a mask that matches what the hardware is
capable of (which may be smaller or larger than what the bus supports).
