Yes, we need both. 

The ULPI Link wrapper passes-through packet data and interprets Rx commands as well as send Tx
commands and provide viewport services to the software. The ULPI link wrapper interfaces between
the port controller (a bus similar to UTMI+ that connects to the rest of the controller and its registers)
and the ULPI interface.

Name XUSBPS_ULPIVIEW_OFFSET
Address 0x00000170

Description ULPI Viewport

The register provides indirect access to the ULPI PHY register set. Although the core performs access
to the ULPI PHY register set, there may be extraordinary circumstances where software may need direct
access.

ULPI PHY Viewport
The ULPI viewport provides a mechanism for software to read and write PHY registers with explicit
control of the address and data using the usb.VIEWPORT register. An interrupt is generated when a
transaction is complete, including when the requested read data is available.

We need your input to determine the best approach . We did preliminary research and discovered few possibilities:

USB Node {
	.............
	ULPI PHY Node {  // child node
		.................
		compatible = "ulpi-phy-";
		#phy-cells = <0x00>;
		..............		
	};
};

Note:
Above examples are to show the interface between the Chipidea Controller and PHY.

Are these possibilities aligning with your inputs?
