Hello Rob, florian, mark
Adding a delete property on all external ethernet-phy@1 is a bit overkill, and I dont like the idea that nodes are merged.
What do you think about other possible solutions:
- Using integrated-phy@1 for the integrated PHY node name
- Using a fake address like 31 (see patch below)
If you have any other solution...

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: sun8i: sunxi-h3-h5: Prevent merge of external and
integrated PHY
Actually, some external and integrated PHY are merged due to same dtnode
name "ethernet-phy@1".
This is problematic when we will want to use the phy-is-integrated
property. (Need to delete it on all external PHY node)
An easy solution is to set integrated PHY nodeaddresss at a fake one
that would never be used.
Since board makers currently only provides PHY at addresses 1 and 7,
we will use 31.
