The nRESET pins of the RTL8224 PHYs on the PSX8/PSX10 are wired to GPIO6
(lan1-4) + GPIO10 (lan5-8) of the SoC, but this was never described in the
devicetree.
GPIO 6 is the global reset shared by (logical) PHYs 0-3 on MDIO bus0. GPIO
10 is the global reset shared by (logical) PHYs 8-11 on mdio bus0. It is
intentionally not declared as reset-gpios on any bus: the MDIO driver /
phylink only support a single reset GPIO per bus, not two (or more). And a
GPIO can only be used as reset-gpio on a single PHY. Attaching it to a
single PHY would still reset the other PHYs on the same chip as a side
effect, leaving their software state out of sync with the hardware and
likely breaking them.
