The Marvell PHY driver consumes marvell,reg-init as one or more
<page register mask value> tuples. Define the property so dtbs_check
validates the existing board descriptions.
Existing users have no compatible or just "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"
so this has to go into the generic ethernet-phy.yaml schema. Marking it
deprecated both for that reason and because opaque register
initialization values are discouraged in DT.

v2:
- Add constraints on item values
- Correct mask description

This fits with my understanding of the hardware.
