I said please explain it in your commit message, but on reflection I
think that would be insufficient. Extending the description to explain
what the peer-hub is would be great too. "peer hub on the controller"
doesn't seem to make sense to me either, as the peer hub phandle is to
another phy, not to the controller. I think that would probably also be
resolved by explaining what the peer hub is in a more detailed manner.

If this is purely a genesys thing, the property should grow a genesys,
prefix also.

Cheers,
Conor.
