[ Upstream commit ed90302be64a53d9031c8ce05428c358b16a5d96 ]

The mainline PCIe PHY driver has it's own devicetree node. Update the
clock alias so the mainline driver finds the clocks.
the mainline PCIe PHY driver only made it into Linux 5.4
I am pointing this out because OpenWrt uses an out-of-tree PCIe driver
with Linux 4.19 and this patch will break that if we don't do
additional work there

thus I would like to understand why this got queued as backport for
various -stable kernels

It went through the automatic selection process, where we attempt to
identify fixes that were not tagged for stable.

I've dropped this patch from all stable trees, thank you.
