The current QMP PCIe PHY bindings are based on the original MSM8996
binding which provided multiple PHYs per IP block and these in turn were
described by child nodes.
Later QMP PCIe PHY blocks only provide a single PHY and the remnant
child node does not really reflect the hardware.
The original MSM8996 binding also ended up describing the individual
register blocks as belonging to either the wrapper node or the PHY child
nodes.
This is an unnecessary level of detail which has lead to problems when
later IP blocks using different register layouts have been forced to fit
the original mould rather than updating the binding. The bindings are
arguable also incomplete as they only the describe register blocks used
by the current Linux drivers (e.g. does not include the per lane PCS
registers).
In preparation for adding new bindings for SC8280XP which further
bindings can be based on, mark the current bindings as "legacy".
