Assume you have 2 phys in your system..
static struct phy_lookup usb_lookup = {
	.phy_name	= "phy-usb.0",
	.dev_id		= "usb.0",
	.con_id		= "usb",
};

static struct phy_lookup sata_lookup = {
	.phy_name	= "sata-usb.1",
	.dev_id		= "sata.0",
	.con_id		= "sata",
};

First you do modprobe phy-usb, the probe of USB PHY driver gets invoked and it
creates the PHY. The phy-core will find a free id (now it will be 0) and then
name the phy as phy-usb.0.
Then with modprobe phy-sata, the phy-core will create phy-sata.1.

This is an ideal case where the .phy_name in phy_lookup matches.

Consider if the order is flipped and the user does modprobe phy-sata first. The
phy_names won't match anymore (the sata phy device name would be "sata-usb.0").
