Some controllers require that phy delay should be disabled. So add
optional properties rx-disable-delay and tx-disable-delay for it.

If the MAC requires it, then the compatible string should imply this. If 
it depends on the PHY, then okay.

Needs a vendor prefix.

Thanks for the review, yes this was targeted to PHY. After feedback
from Andrew, I have removed this is v2 posted earlier!

Indeed, and it would actually be nicer to allow specifying delays
directly in ps units, see:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dwmac-sun8i.txt
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/mediatek-dwmac.txt

for examples.
