In fact, I positioned the PCIe PHY node outside the PCIe controller node.
It would be more appropriate for the PCIe PHY as the child node of the PCIe
controller. I will revise to this structure.
I will also remove the "realtek,pcie-syscon" property and use dev->parent->of_node
to get the syscon of the PCIe controller.

Since the MDIO register is located within the PCIe controller registers, it can
only be accessed after enabling the clock and asserting the resets of the PCIe controller.
Therefore, the PCIe PHY driver only registers the callback functions of phy_ops (.init and .calibrate).
After the PCIe controller driver sets the clock and resets, it will execute PHY framework API to
configure the PHY.

Thanks,
Tzuyi Chang
