Since the Device Tree needs to be correct to identify which PHY to use (internal or external), if you use the standard compatible string for the PHY that contains its OUI, e.g: compatible = "ethernet-phy-id0044.1400", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22" then you can have your Ethernet MAC identify whether this is an internal PHY by having a list of compatible strings to match against. Corentin, can you make sure you copy netdev, Andrew and myself on the next submissions so we don't have to keep track of seemingly identical threads (this one + the rockchip dwmac changes) and we can work towards one solution?
