I've never seen dtc complain about this:
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/dra72-evm.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih407-b2120.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih415-b2000.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih415-b2020.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih416-b2000.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih416-b2020.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/stih416-b2020e.dtb
DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-375-db.dtb
Probably because they're not actually 'duplicate' per say. Rather
they are the same node split into different files. I can remove the
labels if required though.

I dislike this formatting. I find it convolutes the hierarchical
structure and makes DTS (and some DTSI) files hard to read i.e hides
parenthood etc.

Good point. Will change to 'phy'.

Then what do you call the parent node?
I see it as:
phy {
port {
};
};
Or
phy {
channel {
};
};
What does Kishon think?
