 of_phy_provider_register and devm_of_phy_provider_register macros can be used to
 register the phy_provider and it takes device and of_xlate as
 arguments. For the dt boot case, all PHY providers should use one of the above
 2 macros to register the PHY provider.
 
+Often the device tree nodes associated with a PHY provider will contain a set
+of children that each represent a single PHY. Some bindings may nest the child
+nodes within extra levels for context and extensibility, in which case the low
+level of_phy_provider_register_full() and devm_of_phy_provider_register_full()
+macros can be used to override the node containing the children.
