Thanks Andrew for the proposal.
For the pure PHY chip qca8084, there is no driver to parse the package
level device tree node for common clocks and resets.

For the common clocks and resets above, whether we can add a qca8084
common device tree node as the child node of MDIO bus node, and then
parse these common properties in the PHY probe function? since the DSA
driver is not enabled for the pure PHY chip.
