Add missing compatible "hisilicon,hi3798mv100-usb2-phy" to compatible
list due to prior driver change.
Also rename to hisilicon,inno-usb2-phy.yaml and add this name to
compatible lists.

According to your driver hisilicon,hi3798mv100-usb2-phy and
hisilicon,inno-usb2-phy are not compatible.
Ah, i didn't pay too much attention to that. I should remove the entry
for hisilicon,inno-usb2-phy in the driver. Sorry for that.
We don't talk here about driver, although I used the driver as proof or
argument, because I don't have access to hardware datasheet (and no
intention to look there).
What I claim is these are not compatible, so respond to this argument,
not some other one.
Why not? Of course they are compatible. All 3 SoCs are using
Why? Because...
inno-usb2-phy. The only difference here is the method to access the
... here! Different programming interface means not compatible.
Please provide instead any argument that they are compatible, in the
meaning of Devicetree of course. You are claiming inno-usb2-phy can be
used for hi3798mv100 and it will work fine?
registers. They are all enabled by `writing BIT(2) to address 0x6`. In
the cover letter, I said the driver is actually doing things wrong.
Cover letter does not matter, I don't even read them. Your commits matter.
Especially the commit adding PHY_TYPE enums, the name is confusing and
conveys the wrong info. It's not PHY which are not compatible, it's the
bus. I'll fix the driver, but still the PHY hardwares are compatible
between these 3 SoCs.
Provide any argument.
Just take a look at the driver. hisi_inno_phy_write_reg() is the
function that differs between different models. But for all of them,
hisi_inno_phy_setup() is the same.
hisi_inno_phy_write_reg() should be moved to a separate bus driver. It's
bus-related, not phy. PHY driver should not care how to access the bus,
but the bus driver should. The PHY driver only needs to use regmap_*
APIs to "write BIT(2) to addr 6".
For mv100 and cv200, the PHY master bus interface is attached to the
perictrl core in SoC (though the perictrl core provides slightly
different register offsets to access the PHY bus). For mv200, it is
directly attached to AHB/APB system bus so we don't need to put it under
a perictrl node anymore. So here, clearly it's the bus the PHY attached
to which is different, not the PHY itself.
That's why i say the driver is wrong from the beginning. It's mixing PHY
driver and bus driver together but they ought to be different. PHY is
always compatible, but the bus is not.
The correct fix should be moving hisi_inno_phy_write_reg() to a new bus
driver and migrating to regmap_* APIs in PHY driver. But i'll have to
write a new driver for that, which i try to avoid (it takes too much
time!). So i said clearly in the cover-letter this should be considered
a hack.
I'll say the driver is broken from the beginning. They should move
write_reg function to a separate regmap driver and only left `write
BIT(2) to addr 0x6` to the PHY driver.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
