[ ... huge block of DP phy support ...]

yes that block was huge, but I also don't see a way to split that up in a
useful way, so it should be fine.

I think it might make sense to go the same way as the DCPHY and also
naneng combophy, to use #phy-cells = 1 to select the phy-mode via DT .

See [0] for Sebastians initial suggestion regarding the DC-PHY.
The naneng combophy already uses that scheme of mode-selection too.

There is of course the issue of backwards-compatibility, but that can be
worked around in the binding with something like:

 '#phy-cells':
    enum: [0, 1]
    description: |
      If #phy-cells is 0, PHY mode is set to PHY_TYPE_HDMI
      If #phy-cells is 1 mode is set in the PHY cells. Supported modes are:
        - PHY_TYPE_HDMI
        - PHY_TYPE_DP
      See include/dt-bindings/phy/phy.h for constants.

PHY_TYPE_HDMI needs to be added to include/dt-bindings/phy/phy.h
but PHY_TYPE_DP is already there.

That way we would standardize on one form of accessing phy-types
on rk3588 :-) .

Also see the Mediatek CSI rx phy doing this too already [1]
