[PATCH] arm64: dts: rockchip: Add compatible for Ethernet PHY
From: Adrian Kossmann
Date: Tue Dec 09 2025 - 16:09:59 EST
Without the compatible string the Ethernet PHY is not bound to the
correct driver. This causes link instability under load, with throughput
eventually dropping to zero.
Add the explicit PHY ID compatible to ensure the proper driver is selected.
