Description
Is your enhancement proposal related to a problem? Please describe.
The phy-connection-type property on ethernet controllers is optional in DTS, but is really essential to specify IMO about the hardware setup. Some vendors give a default value in the binding for their SOC / chip but this doesn't really make sense because the value should be completely dependent on the board setup, unless the mac chip really only supports one type of connection.
Describe the solution you'd like
Make the property required: true
and rework any drivers and vendor bindings that are using it in a way that doesn't align with that
Describe alternatives you've considered
This is a pretty simple issue, there's not really alternatives
Additional context
This issue ticket is mostly just a reminder to myself
