Actually, i'm wrong about that. reg in this context is the LED number
of the PHY. Typically there are 2 or 3 LEDs per PHY.

There is no reason the properties need to be unique. Often the LEDs
have 8 or 16 functions, identical for each LED, but with different
reset defaults so they show different things.
