In the case of MTIP L2 switch, the reset gpio line (in my case, but
also on e.g. imx28-evk, and vf610) is single for both PHYs.

I could move the reset to mdio child nodes, but this would be
problematic, as asserting reset on one PHY would reset the second one.

That is why there is a single 'phy-reset-gpios' property for the switch
driver.

I do believe that for FEC it may be deprecated, but for the HW
configurations I'm aware of it fits best.
