Feel free to move the PHY pieces to a separate PHY driver as suggested.
My driver code was merely WIP one and I don't have any objection to
change the patch.

I'd be happy if you add my Co-developed tag to the PCIe driver patch with
the SoB ofc.

Ah, please don't do that. I know that you've already followed the same
process for other HiSi drivers but that looks messy IMO.

You might need to create a PHY driver for both 960 and 970. I don't see
any harm there. But please make sure you test the patches on both boards.
