Adding a top level $ref to ethernet-controller, implies, DT for gmii2rgmii, follows the schema in ethernet-controller.yaml. This is incorrect since gmii2rgmii IP isn't an ethernet controller.
I'm not sure how to reference ethernet-controller.yaml from this schema. Would it be okay to add a description to the phy-handle property instead of referencing the description in ethernet-controller.yaml?
