[PATCH] dt-bindings: net: ethernet-phy: clarify when compatible must specify PHY ID

[Buday Csaba]

Change PHY ID description in ethernet-phy.yaml to clarify that a
PHY ID is required (may -> must) when the PHY requires special
initialization sequence.

+          If the PHY reports an incorrect ID (or none at all), or the PHY
+          requires a specific initialization sequence (like a particular
+          order of clocks, resets, power supplies), then the compatible list
+          must contain an entry with the correct PHY ID in the above form.
           The first group of digits is the 16 bit Phy Identifier 1
           register, this is the chip vendor OUI bits 3:18. The
           second group of digits is the Phy Identifier 2 register,
