This rule is basically mandatory for *new* property definitions.

However, both phy_type and dr_mode are properties that already exist and
have historical precedence for their naming. So, I don't think we can
change them. In fact, IIRC, someone even posted some patches to provide
a common set of parsing functions for those properties, and I assume
those patches use the existing names with _ in them. The patches aren't
applied yet though, I think.

(Venu, we already discussed this rule downstream)
