Really should explain what kind of value it is and what the values
mean.  I.e., should this be ti,sgimii-type = <4> to select 4 wire?

Maybe a boolean, "sgmii-clock", to indicate the presence of sgmii rx
clock lines, would make more sense?

I also wonder if phy-mode = "sgmii-clk" or "sgmii-6wire", vs the
existing phy-mode = "sgmii", might also be a better way to describe
this instead of a new property.
