Hi,

thanks for the extensive review!

I'd rather not have a compatible here. First, it's auto discoverable
and IIRC it's frowned upon adding any compatible if you ask the PHY
maintainers. And second, if we change the PHY (maybe due to a second
chip shortage or whatever), there is a chance you don't have to
update this in the DT.

This is only a basic device tree. On one i2c controller, there is
the LVDS bridge for example. My plan is to get the support for this
bridge upstream first and then adding the appropriate device nodes
here.

That being said, some are exposed to connectors. I'll add a comment
then.

No eMMC, but I'd guess it will support SDIO as in you can just plug
an SDIO card in the SD slot, right? Oh, it's a micro SD socket. So
uhm, I'm not sure if we should restrict it, though. Someone might
come up with a microsd to sd card adapter. I have one right in front
of me ;)

So no-mmc;

Sure, the mt8195-demo was the blueprint for this. So maybe you should
get rid of it there to prevent any copying ;) (btw the same goes for
the regulator-compatible property).

Speaking of pinctrl, I find the R0R1 bias-pull-down values really
hard to grasp. The DT binding documentation didn't really help here.
What is R0 and R1, I presume some resistors which can be enabled.
Also are they in parallel or in series. I'd have assumed, the DT
binding should have hid this by giving the user a choice for the
resistance instead. Also I had a quick search in the RM and
couldn't find anything, I probably looked at the wrong place ;)

Ahh, good catch, it's a leftover from mt8183-kukui.dts. There is
probably wrong, too.

Uhm, seems like I've missed that.

I don't think this is correct, though. Think of an on-board USB
hub. There only D+/D- are connected (and maybe the USB3.2 SerDes
lanes). Or have a look at the M.2 pinout. There is no Vbus.

Also it seems I need the "mediatek,u3p-dis-msk = <0x01>;". At least
the last time I've tested it. I'll test it again, with and without.
The SerDes Line of the corresponding USB3.2 port is used for PCIe in
this case.

As mentioned above, I don't think this will make sense in my case.

I do have the schematics.
