This patch adds documentation for phy-is-integrated, a boolean property for PHY which permit to know if the PHY is integrated in the SoC. For example, Allwinner H3 embeds an internal PHY but still permit to connect an external PHY. Since it is possible in theory to have the same PHY model both internal and external, the only way to detect the location of the PHY is via this property.
