Introduce ACPI mechanism to get PHYs registered on a MDIO bus and
provide them to be connected to MAC.

Describe properties "phy-handle" and "phy-mode".

+=========================
+MDIO bus and PHYs in ACPI
+=========================
+
+The PHYs on an mdiobus are probed and registered using
+fwnode_mdiobus_register_phy().
+Later, for connecting these PHYs to MAC, the PHYs registered on the
+mdiobus have to be referenced.
+
+phy-handle
+-----------
+For each MAC node, a property "phy-handle" is used to reference the
+PHY that is registered on an MDIO bus.
+
+phy-mode
+--------
+Property "phy-mode" defines the type of PHY interface.
+
+An example of this is shown below::
+
+DSDT entry for MACs where PHY nodes are referenced
+--------------------------------------------------
+	Scope(\_SB.MCE0.PR17) // 1G
+	{
+	  Name (_DSD, Package () {
+	     ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
+		 Package () {
+		     Package (2) {"phy-mode", "rgmii-id"},
+		     Package (2) {"phy-handle", Package (){\_SB.MDI0.PHY1}}
+	      }
+	   })
+	}
+
+	Scope(\_SB.MCE0.PR18) // 1G
+	{
+	  Name (_DSD, Package () {
+	    ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
+		Package () {
+		    Package (2) {"phy-mode", "rgmii-id"},
+		    Package (2) {"phy-handle", Package (){\_SB.MDI0.PHY2}}
+	    }
+	  })
+	}
+
+DSDT entry for MDIO node
+------------------------
+a) Silicon Component
+--------------------
+	Scope(_SB)
+	{
+	  Device(MDI0) {
+	    Name(_HID, "NXP0006")
+	    Name(_CCA, 1)
+	    Name(_UID, 0)
+	    Name(_CRS, ResourceTemplate() {
+	      Memory32Fixed(ReadWrite, MDI0_BASE, MDI_LEN)
+	      Interrupt(ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveHigh, Shared)
+	       {
+		 MDI0_IT
+	       }
+	    }) // end of _CRS for MDI0
+	  } // end of MDI0
+	}
+
+b) Platform Component
+---------------------
+	Scope(\_SB.MDI0)
+	{
+	  Device(PHY1) {
+	    Name (_ADR, 0x1)
+	  } // end of PHY1
+
+	  Device(PHY2) {
+	    Name (_ADR, 0x2)
+	  } // end of PHY2
+	}
