tx-internal-delays and rx-internal-delays are a common setting for RGMII
capable devices.

These properties are used when the phy-mode or phy-controller is set to
rgmii-id, rgmii-rxid or rgmii-txid.  These modes indicate to the
controller that the PHY will add the internal delay for the connection.

So in a later patch you have:

default: 2000

That seems to apply that these values only apply when the phy mode
indicates a delay is needed. It would be good to document that here,
when each of these properties will be used. Also, that they default to
2000 when not present.

The default of 2000ps is for the DP83869 only.  The DP83822 fixed delay is 3500ps.

So indicating that the default here is 2000ps for all devices is not correct.

But I can add a note that if these properties are present then the delay is added by the PHY.
