What common property? I don't see any such property in
ethernet-controller.yaml.

Is this for an serdes, sgmii, etc. type phy or ethernet phy? Either way,
this property belongs in the PHY's node because it is the PHY that has
supply connection. I'm guessing you put this here for the latter case
because ethernet PHYs on MDIO are "discoverable" except for the small
problem that powering them on is not discoverable.
