Hi Kishon,

I've noticed there is a little inconsistency between the code and documentation.

The 'label' argument is missing in those function prototypes. It seems the
labels must be unique, I guess this needs to be documented. And do we allow
NULL labels ? If so, then there is probably a check for NULL label needed
in phy_lookup() and if not, then phy_create() should fail when NULL label
is passed ?

Yeah. Label is used only for non-dt case so NULL should be allowed while phy_create().

Thanks
Kishon
