The devicetree spec allows node names of "usb-phy". So be more
specific for the USB PHYs, and name the nodes "usb-phy" instead of
just "phy".

Why? "phy" is more generic.

Hi Dmitry,

The goal is to be more specific. I find usb-phy, ethernet-phy and others

We do not have such goal. Where did you find that goal documented?

If the goal isn't to be specific, clear, and readable, what is it? Why not be generic, and call subnodes node@, or dev@ ?
