Can we use generic PHY for this and add a few operations? Or should we
create a new phy type?

In general with DM we should not add driver-specific uclasses. There
are cases where is makes sense and it's hard to predict the future,
but you can imagine ending up with a huge number of APIs if we don't
manager to share.

Regards.
