Document qcom,dsi-phy-cphy-mode option, which can be used to control
whether DSI will operate in D-PHY (default) or C-PHY mode.

Given this is a standard MIPI thing, I think this needs to be a common 
property. We already have phy bindings that use the phy cells to set the 
phy type which I think you should use here. See 
include/dt-bindings/phy/phy.h.

Note that this file is in the process of being converted to schema. 
That's been going on for at least the last year... :(

Is it OK to simply change the option to something like "phy-mode = 
<PHY_TYPE_DSI_CPHY>;"?

(using phy-cells would be annoying to implement, with no benefit IMO)

To add another feather to the balance scales:

- `phys = <&dsi0_phy PHY_TYPE_DSI_CPHY>;` would bring knowledge about 
PHY mode to the DSI host (which does not really care about PHY mode)

- `phy-mode = <PHY_TYPE_DSI_CPHY>;` would stay in the PHY node, where 
this information belongs.
