How would anyone know how to use a binding like this if you guys with
access to internal docs can't even answer how the QREF supplies maps to
the PHYs for a given SoC?

I think you need to provide a lot more detail here so we can determine
how best best to proceed. We shouldn't accept made up PHY supplies
without a proper motivation just because that's how it's done
downstream.
