I think Linux handles this a bit different:  The node for the PHY contains
almost the same properties already so I believe that is what's used in the
kernel:

	ethphy0: ethernet-phy at 0 {
		reg = <0>;
		max-speed = <100>;
		reset-gpios = <&gpio5 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		reset-delay-us = <1000>;
		reset-post-delay-us = <1000>;
	};

Not sure why U-Boot uses a different set of properties, maybe it makes
sense at some point to start using those instead.

Also, this was the reason why I put it into the general dhcom dtsi.  I was
thinking that, if the existing properties are this general, mine should
probably be, too.
