PERST# is by definition an optional signal, but I'm not sure about why PHY is
not used by the controller driver.

Linus, Bartosz, are you OK with devm_fwnode_gpiod_get_optional() API? Just
wanted to confirm before I go ahead as there are existing users checking for
-ENOENT explicitly. Not sure if they are doing it for a reason other than the
absence of the _optional variant or not.
