But if the IP block is the same, the compatible string should be
identical.

I would instead recommend making the mode of the PHY device the
argument to the phy handle in DT, so that the sata node uses
phys = <&phyA 0>;
and the PCIe node uses
phys = <&phyB 1>;
Then the binding for the phy defines that an argument of '0' means sata mode,
while '1' means pcie mode, plus you should define all other valid modes.
