Hi,

we are using "phy-connection-type" not "phy-mode" for the NXP (former Freescale)
DPAA platforms. While the two seem to be interchangeable ("phy-mode" seems to be
more recent, looking at the device tree bindings), the driver code in Linux 
seems
to use one or the other, not both so one should stick with the variant the 
driver
is using. To make things more complex, there may be dependencies in bootloaders,
I see code in u-boot using only "phy-connection-type" or only "phy-mode".

I'd leave "phy-connection-type" as is.
