Yes. The dtschema and driver already use standard unit.
This patch is going to correct the unintuitive expression.

Take tx-rise-tune as example, register field as below:

		00b - + 3%
 [21:20]	01b - 0 (default)
TXRISETUNE	10b - - 1%
		11b - - 3%

The valid value of tx-rise-tune is [-3%, +3%]. However, the current dtschema
add an offset which caused the valid value to [97%, 103%].

fsl,phy-tx-rise-tune-percent:
  minimum: 97
  maximum: 103

When I first added tuning property to DTS, I thought I was reading the wrong
dtschema. Other users may meet such confuse too. 

Thanks,
