phandle and linux-phandle are neither documented nor used. Either
document or drop.
They are core device-tree stuff, as such they are used potentially
anywhere and afaik can be / are generated by DTC but yes, this is
not the place to document them.
Turns out they are documented elsewhere. See
Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.txt.
Or rather, "phandle" is, "linux,phandle" is an older variant used
for backward compatibility that our firmware still generates but
definitely something we can strip from the doc.
Both are not mentioned in any other bindings, so my take is they should
not be mentioned here either.
Thanks,
Guenter
